A Memory Yet Poem by Lamia Khalifa7

A Memory Yet



Ever since forever however long that seems, I have been praying to forget you even in my dreams.
Every night I clean my soul from fear and hate, washing away all the nasty stains they made.
Wasting papers writing letters I know I will never send, spending nights counting scares I know will never mend.
My biggest enemy was time now time is my closest friend.
If I ask you today, are we a memory yet, remember when I told you forever is a losing bet, tell me now are we a memory yet.

Where you the eye of my storm, my last sailing ship, or a shooting star coming down for a dip.
May be my moment of clarity in my endless debate, or proof that in the end we all become what we hate.
Where you a flashback, or a sign of things to come.
When my last tear has dropped on sand and I watched it washed away by every braking wave on land
I found my rock at the bottom where finally laid my head. I wonder

Are we a memory yet remember when I told you forever was a losing bet How about today are we a memory yet?

I will not ask where were you when I was crying, where were you when I was week.
Why you never noticed me trying why you never listed when I Speak
Since you it's been quiet journey i have been walking barefoot in my head.
So I gave away your tomorrows and even the sheets of my bed.
My broken boat that I spent a year fixing will sail away today
I know my heart is seems cloudy now, but my spring is on its way.
And because giving up was a luxury I couldn't afford and my poor victim story is getting old.

Are we a memory yet remember when I told you forever was a losing bet How about today are we a memory yet?
