Remember the Memories

*Written for my English class :]*

Recreating the memories:
The moments, the times, the places, the people-
Recreating the life, the past.

Look back;
Look back;
Look back;

Walk past the lane where your inner child resides.
Don't be afraid to remember;
Remember everything.

The flashes continue-
As you dig deeper into your catacombs.
Haunted corners, with cobwebs
slowly covering and spreading out-
in all directions.

Find the child, find them there-
Hiding; Playing; Remembering.
Watch them, watch and learn.

Imitate their movements,
Do as they do; do as they say.

Listen;
Listen;
Listen;

After awhile, you'll notice something:
They're not as different as we thought.
Younger, maybe; Innocent, yes.

Innocent;
Innocent;
Innocent;

Times, different since the passing moons-
Laying moon and starlight
on the dust-covered memories.
Basking them in the glory
of eternal life.
Even after all is said and done.

Memories are the dust-covered reminders;
The past is real; was real; can be repeated.
More is evident than ever before.
Brace the innocence, the past-
But don't let it engulf you; wash you away.
Then, nothing would be worth it.

Blow the dust off the memories;
It's alright to sneeze, no one's there.
God Bless You, just in case.
Explore and learn; you've changed and grew/
Recreate the memories;

Learn;
Learn;
Learn;

Remember the memories.

    This was beautiful!
    The opening was beautifully done, really pulls the reader into the poem, and from there on it gets better and better.
    Flow was flawless throughout, and the imagery creates vivid pictures.
    The wording was an absolute joy to read, as was the whole poem.
    The repetition used was nicely done, it gave the poem such a lot of impact, and it was beautifully wrapped up.

    I REALLY liked that, I am left speechless so this may either be a crappy comment, or a confusing comment..or both! haha.

    First off, I really loved the structure of this poem, and the repetition of ideas really helped to bring the idea forth more.

    I liked your vocabulary as well, it expands with each poem you write, and I sometimes learn new words off of you! haha, which is a good thing. =)

    But, there were a few things I caught on to...
    "the past is reall was real can be repeated"
    could be
    "The past is real, was real, can never be repeated"
    &&
    "Explore and learnl you've changed and grew"
    could be
    "explore and learn; you've changed and grew"

    Maybe not a semi-colon in that one, but a comma or a sentence break would help because some people read poems out loud and with proper grammar, it brings it out more. =)

    Nontheless, I did love this poem, as I love all your work..but Dear, this is probably my favorite that I have read of yours thus far, I think I may just nominate it..not because I love you (BUT I DO), but because it is worthy of being on the front page. =)

    heartchuu. 5.5
