Fading Memories

Fading Memories By Kirsten Caresse

holding onto the few things that remain
so scared that they'll slip through my fingers
clasping onto them
keeping them from fading any further
not letting you dissapear
not letting memories go
please
don't let me forget

Author's Note

to me, memories are one of the most important things....

i enjoyed the simplicity you used in this poem. it was a good read. I also like the words you ended on which were short and succinct. Lovely poem ;)

I like this because I feel the same way so often. Memories seem to slowly slip away, becoming a mere shadow of what they once were. The ending of the poem "Please don't let me forget" is so powerful almost pleading. Great Write!
