Poetry: Vivid Memories
Darius is a former high school literary and feature writer that loves reading books, listening to music, and watching movies.
I remembered it so vividly,
A memory from my past.
Oh, how it fades so quickly,
I always thought it could last.
From the way you spoke
And the way you move,
How it made me choke,
How I lost my groove.
From your eyes that shone
Like a thousand burning stars,
And pillows to stones;
It made my scars.
From your hand, so fragile
And your hair so pitch and black,
Though you were agile and smart,
I resisted your every attack.
And from the moment I cleared
A confession, oh, so wrong,
It became blurred,
That was just too strong.
For friends, are we, cannot be
Ordinary turned into imaginary;
An indefinite fate, an unknown destiny,
A ludicrous statement, a hope to flee.
Thus I remembered it all so vividly —
How I liked you so, as such;
How I loved you real and quickly,
And how it all hurt very much.
