Highest Achievement - #7 in poetry [Oct 3, 2016]
~Nostalgia~
It's delicate, but potent.
The pain from an old wound.
A twinge in your heart..
Far more powerful than memory alone
A feeling of a place
Where we...
Ache
To
Go
Again.
-My thoughts. My word...

I close my eyes to the sound of rain My finger caressing the atlas's pane
Trailing over the neat webs in maps Oh baby, have I lost that many naps?
In my silence, I trace all those roads That we travelled, too lost in hoards
Oh your absence spans all the pages Trappin' me in journey of gone ages
A swarm of colors encloses my eyes I can't look away from our lost skies
Rain taps away at the window pane While my mind makes me go insane
I look, your silhouette summons me Stoppin' me from setting myself free
So I surrender to your lost call again And dive down into the pool of pain
Holdin' this atlas so close to my heart I absorb the distance setting us apart
Author's Note
Listening to 'Say Anything' by Ashley Nite. I'm watching 'The Vampire Diaries' these days and I loved this song! ❤
I've had this idea for so long and I put it into my book 'Cara Evelyn' as well. It's this that if you miss anyone, just take out the atlas and trace your fingers across the map and they're going to be somewhere under your touch and you can feel close to them. I know it sounds absurd and more like escaping reality but..that's fine. Fine than falling apart. :')❤
P.S this poem is too bad as I planned to do it better in free verse but I'm a bit distracted right now and I had to take it out real quick before it ate away my mind so here's it, a third class version of what it was meant to be. 😂
