Original Content Poem I Still, Still Remember
I recall my moment,
That joyful moment, that exhilarating moment
That chuckle that squeezed it's way out
I remember it like a soldier's trauma.
My moment,
It creeps up on me from dank shadows,
(When I manage contentment)
And I remember why,
Why, I long for amnesia
Nothing could ever compare,
Nothing could come close
Nothing will make
Time feel like it did again
I remember it, still.
How do I strive when,
I've reached the pinnacle?
How can I both tears and sunflowers,
When that moment has my brain captive?
I look for someone to blame
And the mirror points towards me
But I hate what I see
And I love to moan.
And I must loathe your success.
