Poem Commentary

I threw this one together this morning... And I don't know why I wrote something of sadness, when I'm in such a decent mood. Yes, there's some truth to it. We all have regrets, we all wish we would of handled some situations a little differently. However, we must live on and learn from our mistakes.

I Remember

I remember... the things I should forget
There's nothing I can do... to take back those regrets
I relive them... though it's not of my own will
There's nothing to be done... those thoughts are with me still 

Living backwards... with thoughts of yesterday
There's nothing I can do... to make them go away
I still see them... the poor choices of the past
There's nothing to be done... the years go by so fast

Decisions... we make them day and night 
There's nothing I can do... but try to make them right
I still think of... what I would do right now
But nothing's to be done... I can't go back then some how

I remember... this broken heart of mine
There's nothing I can do... I see it all the time
I relive it... the love I had for her
But nothing's to be done... nothing is forever

Beautiful beautiful beautiful!!!!! How does this poem not have any other reviews??? Such a melancholy truth shared. Gave me goosebumps. Your words are like a script read from my heart, that I have been unable to express. Just Beautiful! Added to my favs.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
