those tangled, lingering memories
mingled with sneaky and deceptive promises of
tomorrow’s better, brighter sunrise
and infinite gentleness, too often forgotten
but etched forever in the hearts of desperate and dazzled dreamers

I have drowned in the twilight shadows of
your typically delicate whispers,
been haunted by your tender glance
manifested in the fickle game we played

with listless and lucid eyes I have watched
the ebb and flow of the frazzling torrent
of you-
the eccentric manifestation
of yesterday’s magnetic memory-
a microcosm of the hollow victories of today
and the undying hopes of tomorrow

Vulnerable here again, I recall
those tangled, lingering memories
mingled with sneaky and deceptive promises of
tomorrow’s better, brighter sunrise
and infinite gentleness, too often forgotten
but etched forever in the hearts of desperate and dazzled dreamers

I have drowned in the twilight shadows of
your typically delicate whispers,
been haunted by your tender glance
manifested in the fickle game we played

with listless and lucid eyes I have watched
the ebb and flow of the frazzling torrent
of you-
the eccentric manifestation
of yesterday’s magnetic memory-
a microcosm of the hollow victories of today
and the undying hopes of tomorrow

And it has stood the test of time as I would say it still is quite good. :-)

Thank you for an interesting and enjoyable read.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
