Memoirs

like a flower;
in the icy winters,
awaiting it’s fall,

like a moon;
hanging overhead,
awaiting the inevitable dawn,

like a ball;
hanging by a thread,
waiting to bounce,

I fall.

Missed reading you and this is simple and straight up just like I like to write also. Hope all has been fine for you and nice to read this pleasure this morning. Good day

your name reminds me of the song!
thanks a lot for reading, i am glad you like it! sometimes simple poetry seems to tell the story far better than a complicated piece.

Nice one Dhruv...you may want to change "morning" to "dawn"...

terrific suggestion, my friend. i think dawn makes much more sense in this context. thanks a million!

the analogy very neatly explains how i feel sometimes. this may be simple and short but it's roots are much deeper.
thanks for reading, and the comments!
