    Mama told me
  One day she'd die
        But
  She never told me
       When
        Or
  How much I'd cry.
So as i lie to myself
      Saying
   She's not gone
       Old
   Memories Become
      Reborn.


I'm the lord, I'm the havoc, I'm the soul

This is a sad poem. Well written though. ->

Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau"
