A Tossed Love Potion

I remember the pain

of that day;

so today,

I’ll capture that

piece of my heart

and place it in

a glass jar.

Bonjour!

Plus comme bon voyage...

Here on the shore,

I toss the memories

into the sea,

so that they’ll

never be

dealt, felt, or smelt

ever again…

Just one with

the wicked ocean.

I didn't know you know French!!! Ah, you and I are alike in this, I usually gather memories in boxes and gently set them free into the sea (literally!). Though probably all in my head, I feel a heavy weight lift off my shoulders. A new beginning commences. Adieu et bon voyage indeed to yesterdays!

Just a tad bit here and there.
That is so awesome! I have only done that once, but there are times where I write things that I want to let go into the abyss; in which, I feel no one else should read or know - not even myself, so I burn them.
Most days I feel like do that to all my works, but then I think twice about it and post them on here now.
Thank you so much Nadia!

if we could snip all the painful things in our lives, put them in a jar and toss them in the sea, we would feel better but pity the poor soul who takes the jar from the sea and opens it letting them all touch his mind in the same instant...

[sinNsincerity]

Maybe we shall place some good memories in there as well so that fool doesn't become overwhelmed hehe =D

yes, that wicked ocean can have the misery...i am washing my heart clean of the past.

nicely expressed.

[sinNsincerity]

Yes very much so, I'm learning to wash away yesterday as I wake up today. To better myself whether the day before was bad or good.
Thank you once again for reading Jacob.

Just be careful when you bottle things up, if your jar is glass, it could shatter!
And even oceans can dry up!

[sinNsincerity]

The glass jar is the poem, my confession to everyone, and the ocean is me finally saying and giving everything God. To forgive, but to never forget. That's why I began writing... to release myself from my thoughts , but to never forget them...

[marcus]

Awesome!!!
