The well of time
Is broken
History will repeat itself
Over and over and over again
Like a loop
Recorder
I will be back
Over and over and over again
Repeat
Repeat
Repeat
This life time over again
Do it again
Backwards
Repeat the process
Relive the experience
And the pain
Over and over again
Broken record
Spinning
Of failed dreams
If only I could
I would
Life washed me up
Long ago

an interesting poem, the style lends well to the theme...the theme is rather melancholy though...to think that life repeats and does not even improve in its repeating is rather sad because it would make all efforts futile...the end especially seems to convey this surrendering to an effort in futility...it's rather sad. i do like that idea of time represented as a well though, there are so many connotative allusions that that brings up; it's a neat idea. peace

Ah but we just do not learn from the pages of history... we have had wars to ends all wars and conflicts...how many wars or conflicts ago was that? then we still have conflicts and are a planet in confused chaos....but we do need never to give up
life in hope.
