Twins of Memory

This is a poem a wrote from a character's point of view...it was different.

 

A voice I can’t hear

A place I can’t see

A world I can’t touch

A life I can’t remember

I can hear voices speaking in my thoughts

But I can’t understand their words

As if a part of me

Is missing

Leaving a gap

I can’t fill

Not with friends

Not with anything…

It feels as if

I don’t belong in this world

I’m out of place

There is someone else

I share my mind with

I try to reach her

To speak to her

But I can’t

She can’t hear me

And I can’t hear her

We are twins

Of memory.

I still don't see what I can possibly add by commenting...but the character speaking isn't alone, not even in the real world. We all have...'voices'...that add to our lives, pointing out different things, erasing parts of our memories, trying to help or hinder or to simply survive for themselves.

I love all of your work, Elemiah. Keep it up.

Aw, poor Kalo. Interesting poem. It's very well-written and it flows very nicely! :) It would be extremely weird having a person that you shared your mind with, but not know that they were there, and couldnt talk with them. O_o WHOOOOOOOO GO SILVER AND KALO! W00T!

I really enjoyed this poem, keep up the great work!

Kalo! I feel your pain! Not really though because I don't have some weird sadistic crazy b***h as my alternate personality. But just remember, even if you can't remember anything, at least you're not as s****y as Kantola! That can always cheer you up, because there's nothing like being a complete and utter b***h to people.
