My mind is stained with memories
and questions that burn in many ways.
No matter how hard I try to undo it,
the stain just won’t go away.

I despise the questions, the ambiguity;
they won’t get out of my way.
The stain, it annoys me so,
both at night and in the day.

I try to clean it, then just ignore it,
but it taunts me day by day,
harassing me with December memories
of a yesterday so far away.


"A dream is a wish your heart makes while you are fast asleep."

I like the internal rhyme of a few of the lines in here...
I also liked the idea of a "stain."  Nice work.

i like your analogy with the stain and the memory too. maybe instead of annoying, you could use a stronger word? other than that, very snazzy!

The rhyme scheme in this piece was awesome.  It helped the flow tremendously.  Wonderful work.  I can't wait to read more.

It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that.

I've learned that even when you
