#erase#


Written for : David’s W3 Prompt #51: Wea’ve Written Weekly


Heartfelt appreciation to Jane Aguiar for this opportunity and a grand thank you to David for your guidance. 🙏


Memento

she sailed above the skies misty
with the moon to converse
one night

appeals to heal her agony
unveils her wounds that pierce
to light


a moonlit memory that haunts
to erase from her mind
cries she

impossible to grant her wants
the moon sadly declined
her plea


raged at the moon, utter despair
her screams resound anger
in vain

regretfully, the moon declares
only you can conquer
this pain

Feel free to add an extra stanza;

Do not confine your words to an anniversary or celebration;

Rather, explore a moment or an emotion, should your thoughts wander there.

  1. This is one of my favourite poems you’ve written. It really read like a short story and loved the ending because it’s so true. No one can take our pain away, it’s only us that can heal from it and move on.
