Notes About The Poem

I Have No Memory of You

I have no memory of you,
Do not dare to say I do,
Your words will fall into the well
Of misery where all damned demons dwell.

The demons of devotion,
The demons of love potions,
The demons of desire,
The demons who conspire 

To give the world wings
Of love and kindred things;
Do not curse me with such pain,
My love for you I'll not regain.

I love the way youv written this dear chetta, iv read few of your poems and i must highlight that you always write in a very evocative manner; this had a bit of dark diction so I couldn’t guess its you but still something about this pulled me to it and the picture youv used here is so fitting and i love it! The poignant and soul stirring nature of this truly is powerful! Worthy of recognition. Congratulations on your win, thank you for sharing.

A perfect poem that emphasizes a disavowal. I had to laugh. So true.
