Perishable.

by Teria   Jan 11, 2008


Savor what we soon shall have,
with thoughts of feelings now.
Let`s move forward for our past,
and forget reasons we might not last.

Grasp onto perishable items,
never let them leave your sight.
For, if we lost only those -
we`d lose everything we`ve chose.

    Wow!
    This is such an amazing poem.
    The length of it really shows the power of words and I love the fact that's its not the stereotypical love poem.

    I thought the last stanza was beautiful.

    Spoken wise and true.

    Wow...
    This is absolutely amazing. You managed to say so much with two stanzas and that is truly impressive.
    I love your writing style- very interesting and refreshing. Excellently written poem, elegant and filled with emotions. Short yet endlessly effective and touching. I like your choice of words and the fact that this isn't one of those clishe love poems- this piece is powerful, filled with inner beauty and uniqueness.
    Flawless poem!
    5/5 from me
