Distinction

by JaM   Mar 13, 2014


I repeatedly imagine,
the day we meet again.
Will I approach you as foe,
or as an old friend?

I am still hurt by you,
yet a part of me doesn't care.
With time I understand,
of past reality, I am aware.

We were full of lust,
it was nothing more.
Our passion was strong,
of that I'm sure.

In my thoughts, I am clear,
it is not you that I desire.
I only wish to feel alive,
from the heat of that fire.

    This has a lot of potential. :). First I want to point out the rhyming. To me it was very flawless. It didn't seem like to me you rhymed just to rhyme. Each rhyme fit the poem well and connected each line. For the the poem itself: I saw a lot of sadness within. I understand why you put it in the life category though. To me you are saying that the person and you that you love is going through a bad relationship and in the past it was much better before. The only way you felt alive or happy was when you started seeing this person. The flames of passion were there and now they are not. Anyways. I really wish I could nominate this. It's a great write

      Thank you! Some times, the words come out smoothly like this one. You're right. That guy, who isn't in my life anymore, took something with him that I haven't felt in a long time. Thank you for your comment.
