Forgotten days have found me


At times in the quiet night,
Where slumber had bound me,
My memory wakes to the light
As forgotten days have found me
The smiles, and tears
Of boyhood’s years,
Of words of love once spoken
The eyes that shone,
Eyes Now dimmed and gone,
Times my hearts been broken
Remembered, in the quiet night,
Where slumber just had bound me,
My memory wakes to the light
As forgotten days have found me

When I remember all
The friends, once linked together,
I’ve seen around me fall
Like leaves in Autumns weather,
I feel like one
Who walks alone
Familiar places deserted,
Whose lights have fled,
Whose flowers are dead,
All but the dead and departed!
Here, in the quiet night,
Where slumber had bound me
My memory wakes to the light
As forgotten days have found me

    This is a piece that oozes with the depression and loss. Just reading it makes one think about the past and all that can never be again, including regrets that can never be undone, but that is what makes any poem great, the feelings it inspires (good or bad)
    Here’s to the future, (which will become the past)
