when you live you begin to die
when you die memories of you life lives in others
when memories of you begin to fade
you truly begin to die

why nobody commented on this is beyond me.  It supports the fact that you live and you die, everything else in between is what people remember you by, but when there dead too, your forgotten.

Nobdy commented on it because it's way too cliche.

*giggle*

You know those little cliques in school where there's one really popular person and all his/her followers, and everything the 'leader' says, all the 'followers' agree with?

Well, the last couple of comments suddenly reminded me of that.

Anyway, I don't think of this as poetry, exactly... maybe something between Haiku (although the formatting isn't right, it has the feel) and just thinking out loud.

If you're really aiming for poetry here, try expanding on the idea... and don't be too impatient with it, sometimes the best poetry takes months to come together correctly.

I like the feeling you're starting with, here... it could really turn into something nice.

the poem or haiku you are replying to is just my little two cents at the end of a post the real poem didn't get on to the post because of server problems

when you live you begin to die
when you die memories of you life lives in others
when memories of you begin to fade
you truly begin to die
