Help Me Remember

by lexie   Aug 2, 2009


I am numb.

I have forgotten what it feels like to be alive.
To feel the warm breeze.
To smile when I wake.
To love without fear.
To swim in the cold stream.
To be free and untamed.

I have lost myself once again.
Why is this becoming a pattern?
I'm hanging by a thread,
Becoming stronger everyday.

Someday I will breathe again.
Someday your arms will hold me.
Someday I will smile so wide.
Someday.

    I actually really liked the beginning and the ending. One thing you might consider is adding an extra space before that last line, "Someday." to give it a little more weight.

    This was a deeply sad poem. *Hugs* yet somehow you managed to show hope. A beautiful poem.
