The Faint Memory

The Faint Memory

A Poem by Amrita Sharma Pokharel




































    • It was the age of lost generation,

    • The age of  lusty miracle...

    • An extravagant lifestyle,

    • Emotionally wounded,

    • Spiritually bankrupt

    • Lives have little or no meaning,

    • If one is unable to stand against the crowd...

      Everyone  drifted on seeking,

    • Love and life...

    • Sleepless-Insomniac...

    • the frightening dreams ; Night mares

    • Broken up..

    • By your hard words,

    • You left

    • [Silence for the moment..]

    • I wanted to see you !!

    • ...we talked for a while 

    • Abruptly we weren’t talking...

    • any longer..

    • the First “nice”person i had ever known

    • Excitingly desirable...

    • Breathless intensity of youry presence,

    • took away my heart..

    • Husky voice

    • Charming face,

    • Mysterious eyes

    • Polite manner...

      Man without history,

      Dreaming for glorious future ..

      Bare in present...His individuality

      Touched by his sense of security,care and  

      “TRUST” ..

      I was nowhere to be found, entirely "LOST’’

      But

      -Betrayed

      -Breathless..."ME’’..

      Thrown apart-We 

      Way of ambition ,getting deeper in love

      Every moment...

      Unexpectedly,

      You're gone!

      I stretched out my hand...desperately

      To snatch only a wisp of air,

      Where i can find you and your aroma

      But, it was moving,you already gone

      Blurred the vision..

      Tears


      Broken Promises...

      You will remorse !

      If you had searched harder ,

      You would have found me

      But 

      Now 

      I am strong enough 

      t

      o gather

      the fragments

      of my heart

      so

      I’m leaving you

      I know  that you are lost! 

      But the freshness of your Love and care..

      Will remain ..forever...

      As this- The faint Memory...

I enjoyed the sense of youthful love-hope. How silly it makes us, though at the time is is all soooooo deadly serious as we know no better. And a new generation is doing exactly the same ... right now ... someone out there is feeling love bleed from them, just as you describe.

Amazing words and artwork. Sometime we must overcome sadness and learn to begin with better wisdom. I like the story and the positive ending to the poem. Thank you for a excellent poem.

Eh...it's a decent enough poem, but I have some mixed feelings about it.

On a good note, I saw some nice images with the language - "to snatch only a wisp of air" and "everyone drifted on seeking / love and life" to name a couple.

I can't exactly pinpoint any particular things about it that I didn't like in the lines. It's just that this is an idea that has been expressed so many times and so many different media; it almost seems unoriginal just because it's the same words, clips, and phrases that I see in every other poem/book/movie/song/etc.
