Encased And Forgotten Poem by Alyx True Edge

Encased And Forgotten

Rating: 5.0

All of this made you brittle and frail
and things ceased to be a wonder
Looking back on days so stale

Unfold the fine petals of a heart,
silently aching in cold summer rain,
let us take things back to the start

Again

Encased and forgotten,
things written into your skin,

Shielding from the rotten
layers of memories become thin

A courageous feat not to bury your hope alive,
captured in vigilantly suave, blue-green eyes

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

It is hope that leads us on. But in these hard times of frozen nothingness and brazen hatred it is a " courageous feat not to bury your hope alive….truthful commentary on the "present"

You say it, the hope is the condensed remainder when rationality and emotion start to fail to process the full situation. I can relate to your words: 'nothingness and brazen hatred', that is what I perceive after tuning in to the evening news, this cries for a new poem. Thank you a lot : )
