Kaya Vella Poet Couplet

Looking Back At Memories

We were having fun,
Dancing and laughing in the sun
When we stop to look back,
When our pasts smacked us on our backs

We split up in the woods,
And in every tree
Stood a memory,
One great one that breaks out our anger

We kept on looking out for danger
and we see a stranger 
Looking at me and laughing at you,
The wind blew him to dust 
And replaced stood a note and a rusted key

We saw the sea and a rabbit having tea,
I realized what these where
But then the hare couldn't stare at nothing more,
But you and me
A Fire tree wrapped around me, 
I caught fire
But I didn't feel any hellfire,
Only to admire the flames 
And to smile, while the tree turned to ashes,
While the flash of the past disappeared 

And we were sent back to the present,
You didn't remember and I had to explain
While I couldn't contain,
All the secrets I had to keep

And I guess that's what happens when you look in the past...

Beata Agustin November 5, 2024 at 7:17 PM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Kaya Vella March 7, 2017 at 8:53 AM The poem is based on the memories you have in life as you can see but it also shows you what else there is to it. If you have someone that's makes you feel free, then you should never let anything in your past take what you have now...
