Final Farewell
I was cleaning out my bookcase
Like I once cleaned out my heart.
I came across your picture
It caused memories to start.
Memories…not feelings
For you my hearts asleep.
The quaint fist that clutched it once
Released a hurt so deep.
I’m over you by now
I had to learn to trust again.
I had forgotten how.
Now, I’ll put your picture back in place
Between the pages of my mind
And forever leave you as you once left me
So very far behind.

Great Read
I really like the lines:
Now, I’ll put your picture back in place
Between the pages of my mind.
Well done!
loved it!
I love this poem! I can feel your emotions, your hurt and anger and I can also see you attempt to put the past hurts behind you and move on. very powerful for me.

Very beautiful... Strong imagery, and very strong feelings. I think you have a simple spelling error on the second stanza, line 2... you wrote the word "hearts" and I think what you mean is "heart's". (just assuming, you may be right) :).
Very well written... good luck :).
love it
It is funny how the simplest things brings back those painful memories. I love the words you picked to create the imagery. Good job.

If you love me so much, why do you hate me so much?
Very good poem!
Very well-done. It captures the hurt, and the pain
you felt at the time, coming across that picture. Had a similiar experience myself recently, and it hurt just as bad. Thank you for your poem. It was wonderful!
