Today I discovered it,
An emblem from the bygone,
A metaphor from my past,
Today I found my little fragmented Polaroid

Looking at it with damp orbs,
The mesh of recollections comes rushing back,
Like someone restored,
The recycle bin of my mind

Clicking on the 'forward' button,
I dolefully reminisce the agonising torment,
The torment of parting,
The torment of letting you go

My doe orbs digest our gleeful photos,
Pictures of us holding hands,
Pictures of our touching lips,
Pictures of us smiling

Pictures of us walking,
Pictures of us eating,
Pictures of us telling how much we love the other,
Infinite pictures, pictures and pictures

The melancholy sentiments I had sorrowfully buried,
Threaten to show up,
I still can't forget,
The power you held over me

Pixels dispersing,
Straying in the flood of nostalgia,
I break down,
And bawl my pent up feelings out

Would everything be different if I refused to let you go?
Would it have been better if I held you tighter?
At least I won't be a ball full of regret today
Only if I had a chance

I wish,
The moments we shared,
Weren't mere memories,
But a lot more

I don't know if I can let go of you yet,
You are still too sweet,
I just wish,
That I were as important to you,
As you were to me

Living in the moment now,
That's what I'll do,
Instead of taking snaps,
I'll feel the moment

Summary-
This poem is based on the theme of 'memories'. I've covered various themes and I feel like each stanza tells a different story. So this is a layered poem. I'm not really satisfied with it, but I wanted to give smh to my loyal readers. The main moto behind writing this poem is, "Live in the moment. Instead of clicking pics, learn to indulge in and feel the moment."
