Best Flashback Poems

The continuous memories scattered inside my mind
All the laughter and loving scenes are left behind
Leaving a life of bad possibilities where I came from
Never getting a chance to show how I overcome


Although it was bad I left something more important
A mother’s smile a little brother...

From light to dark, I am filled with delusion
Of memories unknown, of emotional strain
Like a hermit to words in moments dismembered
When time became a  riddle, a crazed  labyrinth 
That each flashback becomes a nightmare
Documenting nothing , not even  a whimper.

A quiet wail...

He looks for her in every face he sees
In hope of just one more glance
Lost in the thought captures his breath
Lids closing over in memory a flashback
Beats thumping hard exploding in his chest
His experience of love - that he once had...

I had a flashback once
It tipped the Richter scale
Almost right at nine
It took control of me

Before I knew the war was on 
You didn't see my mind
You only heard my fist
Trying to be kind

Help me find my soul
Hylda wants my heart
To hang it on the...

I was about four,
Was sitting on the shore.
And it was around two,
That’s when I met you.

You were strolling down the beach,
In your hand you held a peach.
On your face you had a smile,
And you wore the latest style.

You turned to look at me,
And then you...

I remember those days of long summer
Oh, the joys of school summer vacation
Of playing hide and seek to endless hours
Pretending to slay the ferocious dragon
And to catch the notorious dacoit Ravan.

When all else played, at trees we looked up
In the hope to find the juiciest...

Disgust
Guilt
Fear
I felt dirty
Trapped in 2006
Experiencing the cold floor
Seeing from a 3rd person view
While feeling from a first person experience
I could not leave
I was stuck in a memory
Of unbelievable horror
14 years later
Haunted by the actions
Of someone I trusted
I loved 
Betrayed in an instant...

Flashback to Fridays when I was a wanted guest
a common companion strolling the riverside
with more than just the moon willing to chat
where words resonated with hand-cut diamonds
lighting up my vision and your restful eyes
where missed lessons were backtracked 
and praise was left to pigeons hiding
in...

They say
way back we became
*****sapiens
They say
we evolved slowly
from ape to man
This unsettling news was force fed to me
through public education shock therapy
Anthropological flashback
has me gritting my teeth
As an adult, got strapped into a metal chair
for being non-conformist,
having old-time radical views
They be giving me cave...

The year was 1956
and I distinctly recall 
my mother's lovely face
as she told me 
Szererlek (I love you) 

and as I seen her lovely smile
I remember her face
as she held back bittersweet tears
tying to hold the impression
that everything was alright and I 
as a youth...
