Me

by david hollas   May 11, 2007


I walked along some forgotten shore
coming the other way
a smiling boy.....
it was me.
Who are you old man he said
I dare not tell him, all i could say was
GO BACK.

    The simplicity of the poem, from the length, is perfect. I love that abruptness. and the feeling of this distance created between our past selves and our present and future selves is so true to everyone i think. The way we all think our lives will turn out differently is something that resonates with all of us. Nicely done

    This poem is very good. :) I agree with Deana, I relate as well, and time passes too quickly. Great job on this piece. :) 5/5
