forget

A Poem by foufa la perle

I tried my best to forget

to let go with no regrets

but it seems like forgetting..

is just a different way to remember.

And every time I look back

I always try to capture the best

but it seems like it was all left

just to look for the better.

And here we are again

you're only a few steps away

but it feels like you're on another planet..

I only wish if we had a chance

to talk about what was left..

what we left, just to look for the better.

But all of that is just a different way to remember,

don't you remember?

(A mess of a dreamer)

This is very clever Foufa - its like a tongue twister for the grey matter
lots of wit and charm and a dash of melancholy too - the ideal poem :)

"you're only (a) few steps away" or perhaps you don't need to define (few) how man steps? the impact is just as real

...an urban cityscape - neon lights reflected in the distance ...the sounds of hidden traffic, hidden life. Sitting on a stoop, heavy head - glistening, slowly moving, unfocused life-full eyes, part of the shadows - IS a shadow... a shadow remembering - the sun.

The power within YOUR thoughts brings others to find their own ...and THAT is poetry.
