    Lost Memory

     I find no way, no way out
    Of this darkness that covers me
    And although, although I sought
    Things to come, to come to me

    They are all lost,
    lost in the wailing wind of sorrow
    They are all gone,
    Never to see, never a tomorrow

    And memories, which I clung to
    So deperately, so needily
    Are lost, not within reach
    As nothing, nothing is within me

    But I ask myself a question:
    Is all lost what could never be?
    For, are all the things I hoped for,
    Just a simple, effervescent dream?

    I like the repetition. The poem is very rhythmic and thought provoking. I think this is an issue we all ponder from time to time.

    Thank you so much! That was exactly what I was going for.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
