The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

This is what came of finding things I had forgotten that I had. Trip down memory lane that didn't really do me much good, unfortunately. *sighs* Oh the joys of memories...

 

 

my heart aches

with each new

tear shed over

old pains.

 

reading through

old memories saved

when love was new

now only causes pain.

 

swift and stabbing it comes,

like a slim sliver blade

driven through my heart and gut

again and again

as I curl up and cry.

 

words shine through the screen

reflecting off tears

falling silently

to the desk surface.

 

memories found,

saved on disk.

things better left

forgotten.

I don't know if you did it on purpose, but I like how you didn't use any capitals...

Reminiscent (sp?) of E.E. Cummings... or rev... :P

 

gives it a smooth, hushed feel about forgetting unwanted memories.

wow, it's good. I agree, the gentle touch is good, it really works with the topic, lending an air of sorrow and regret, instead of the anger i've been seeing of late in people in such situations. well done piece

sorrow found in past memories rather than pain and anger? wow! You dont see that, that often. It seems that nowadays everyone has to regret or resent their past.. and that forgiveness is rare.

 

None the less, amazing poem as always. Thank you for sharing.
