Memories !!!!!!!

This is just random lines that I thought of.. Hope it makes sense to all..


Why does somethings never change..
How much ever you try..
It still remains..
You try your best..
To ignore.. to defy..
But at the end.. It still comes out.. for one to remind.. what this is all about..

Here you are again..
Back in my memory..
Why are you still here??
Invading my soul..

How the mind wanders.. to different alleys..
and it retrieves a memory to haunt my soul..
Of days of long past gone.. of things that did not last..
But Alas ,
The damage is done..
Memories can not be undone.....

wonderful words...
read this somewhere...if my memory doesn't fail me it must be most probably at lena's...

love is giving someone the power to destroy you...but trusting them not to...

Rajesh said...

Camus once wrote"the greatest power is the power to forget"
For a writer, memories ( all types,even if you want to brand them in to good and bad)are precious..
But the relation we should have with them should be the same we have with non-living 'things'

Don't be scared of memories..
Don't be afraid even if they makes you cry
But don't forget to have an eye on them when they are "in"..
After the party have the guts to tell them that you played the gentle host for sometime and they should also understant that there are always visiting hours after which they should have to leave the place..
nice post...

beautiful lines... unfortunately.. or maybe its good.. memories will always be with us.. helping us to move on and to go through, making us stronger..

well i guess humbl devil referred to this post of mine where i used this thought "love is giving someone the power to destroy you...but trusting them not to..."

here is the link http://it-is-all-my-world.blogspot.com/2008/08/princess-diaries.html

though of course the subject of your post is a different one :)

humbl devil said...

Anu said...

I really liked the last line, it captured the essence of the poem. Though i would say that these lines, would be best as the first para
"How the mind wanders.. to different alleys..
and it retrieves a memory to haunt my soul..
Of days of long past gone.. of things that did not last.. "
It gives it a haunting start

Hi,

If you are writing poems for the first time, this one should pass over as a genuine expressive poem. Kudos !!
About the emotions expressed here , you have stated the reasons yourself as in why the things we try to ignore do not go out, they come again to haunt. Have read somewhere that instead of avoiding such thoughts you face it, accept the fact and then release it. Coz the more one tries to ignore something,the more it will haunt you, because in the process of trying to ignore you are unintentionally embracing the thought itself... ;) Makes sense, huh ??

Happy Writing Forever !!

Prashant

I wanna undo what's in memory. If I hang out in Oxford Street or if I got to a live concert, I can forget the past for a while.

BTW, look at my commentin Preeti's blog 'The Great Urban Divide' and tell me what you spoke to her.
