Room Of Memories Poem by Maguna Lokark

Room Of Memories

Rating: 5.0


In that corner of the room
Behind the curtains of the room
Lives a small part of me,
Lives a younger me

The infant that i once was
The infant that became me
Resides in this room
As memories of sorrow and glee

Every tear that stained
Every smile that was made
Resides in this room
Where i once joyfully played

I remember only
Two spent days
One where i left for greed
And one when the child in me stays.

The instant i left
The comforts of this room
The adult in me selfishly rejoiced
While my younger self drowned in doom

The day i returned
Was a day of discovery
Of not the new
But the old, joyous younger me.
