Short Long As I Can Remember Poems

They asked their God:
“Why is there poverty, famine and injustice in the world?
Then pleaded…”Please, God, what are you going to do?”

“For as long as I can remember”, their God answered,
“Those are the same questions I’ve been asking you.”...

Life is Seasonal
Written: by Miracle Man

Happy times are so long past we scarcely remember,
but an old photo album reminds us they did exist.
Now time has moved from March to deep December,
and today we’ve nothing in common so we coexist.

Good night.
After 45 x 365 nights, I just realised.
They were only my dreams.
They lasted so long I do not remember what they meant.
Whatever they were, they have gone forever.
I do not want them to come back and give me heartache.
I either we took it or left it.
There was no but about it.
Why did not you lightly make the promises,
And cruelly you decided to break it....

Its been like this for as long as you can remember into the past,
You sit here wondering why your an outcast,
You put everyone elses wants before your own,
Hoping you can befriend them so you wont be alone,
Thinking of how your self-confidence could be gained,
Snapping back to reality you realize its completely drained,
Deciding to bring all your deeds for everyone else to an end,
Obviously none of these people will ever make a good friend...

imagine life without lies,
love with no goodbyes.
what would be the sparkle in our eyes?
a sparkle of pure happiness,no questions asked.
everyday waking up to a beautiful forecast.
all we have is our hope,
and those slight feelings of joy.
but,for those other times we got our captain morgan..ahoy.
so shoot it up,drink it down,anything to feel numb.
you're gonna be okay,just keep your head held high.
as long as you can't remember a goodbye....

You ask me of where my shadow lies
Ready to rust
Or at least in the darkness, it’s lost
Thought you; above all will know the answer
The one that even I need to go down
Into the vault to search and
Open my eyes 
Listening the cries
Scream and find the coldness
On the floor 
That will speak to me
About my whereabouts 
Yet in a language I can’t understand
I never have 
For it’s been so long that I can’t remember 
Or think 
Think of anything but you...

For as long as I can remember, I have felt misplaced
Yearning for acceptance, but also no desire to be embraced

My biggest wish is to give all of me
To empty my heart for all to see
To feel pain and agony

I carry my heart on my sleeve
Exposed, even to those who deceive

Why do I feel so intensely?
Why do I crave misery immensely?

I know I bring happiness to some
I fear my good deeds will come undone

Never satisfied, 
Always unjustified.

i have been in training as 
long as i can remember, 
i am destined to be an
(e)motional engineer, to
describe, take apart, rearrange
the many parts & pieces of
(e)motion. our bodies are
soldiers of kinetic energy, 
movement & reason & thought.
so many problems can &
will arise, stand tall, make 
everyone around suddenly
fall, forget- turn around & begin
again. you can't have one
without the other, in (e)motion,
can't take a step without first
standing....

My sister wrote a poem for me
Of christmass's gone and past
The time that was so special
We thought would last and last
The time is always changing
And we all know this is true
And things are not the same for us
So what are we to do?
We take the precious moments
That we shared some years ago
And know we will always have them
And never let them go
For no one can take the memories
That we hold oh so dear
As long as we could remember
And so how much we care...

I thought of you today
I have always believed
That I was fortunate to have you as an uncle
There are many relatives in our lives
But only a very few leave a lasting impression
It is these relatives we think of often
So much of what I have become is because of you
You taught me to believe in myself
You taught me the importance of family
For as long as I can remember
You have always been by my side
You are one of the few people in my life
Who I will always consider a true friend....
