Mind reeling I fall back
Into this vortex I collapse
Fall to my knees begin to pray
Memories come crashing down now
I cry to GOD, and he brings the rain
That washes away all this pain
I'm getting better now, growing older
Day by day, these memories fade
But just as my conscience starts to clear
I drag the rivers, your still there
The way I bring you down
Could not compare
As if it wasn't hard enough
You've got to make it so much harder
In another world I could learn to forget
But till then I'm here
Making room for new regrets.

"Cause I can't fix something this complex anymore than I can build a rose"

Wow good poem, keep em coming.

Give her two red roses, each with a note. The first note says "For the woman I love" and the second, "For my best friend."

Very impressive...a strong, meaningful ending to an already good poem.

Beautiful writing, my friend. We all get like this sometimes, and you describe it really well. Your writing improves each time you post (not that you need it), and it's a joy to read everything you write. I just wish you were able to share more. Thanks for this one!

This is a very nicely written piece you have here, Hand Me Down.  Good job... I'm looking forward to seeing more.

I liked this very much.
Quite the poem!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I really liked this poem its the first one I've read of yours because I'm a new member but I hope to be reading more in the very short future!  I liked the deep words which you used to give the poem a gloomy feel! Very interesting!
