Memories Fade

Memories fade Which is crazy cause I figured the thought of me was etched carved and engraved Into your heart and soul But today I find out how much your mind is playing a role It can fail deceive and corrupt But today from so far away its the tears that erupt They rise up up from deep within Cause soon I may have to begin To realize that your time is short left here on earth alive Dear grandma please survive Just a little bit longer, give me a chance to get back to you one last time To tell you I love you, hope it bypasses your head straight to your heart So you can reach back deep within for that memory of what we are What we have been and always will be The most important thing in this world to me...one word...family

Hi Frank, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@

I have very little experience in poetry. Every once in a while something will move me enough to try and express it in words. This one came to me in a dream state. When I woke up in middle of the night I quickly wrote down all thatcould eb remembered. Had to clean it up a lil next morning (little illiterate at 3 am lol. It is meaningful to me however as I'm in the military far from family and my grandma developed alzheimers a year ago. All feedback is welcome.
