Misunderstood Misunderstanding

Holding on
Ignoring time
Mindlessly

I should let go

Or at least try

Not like this, with
Overlapping meanings

Constrict, releasing
And though it hurts
Never mind it
Tearing apart my...

Endless rhymes.

Every tear, a
Memory from long...so long..ago
But everything forgotten
Everything
Remember?

Brush the memories
Under a rug
To lie in darkness

Why speak in riddles?
Or lies riddled with poetry?
Never to be understood
Though the meaning is clear

Forget me please

Endless rhymes,
Tearing apart my...

    I really liked this,
    'Why speak in riddles?
    Or lies riddled with poetry?
    Never to be understood
    Though the meaning is clear'

    I loved that stanza.

    I found the beginning slow to read, but thought it perfectly reflected the mood of the poem with how it was set out.
    good luck in my contest
