1. Nights that Burn
The moon feels too far,
sleep hides in some other world,
tonight lasts too long.
2. Shadows in Rain
Raindrops kiss my skin,
yet I feel your hands so warm,
a ghost in my arms.
3. Heart Left Open
No locks, no closed doors,
yet no one stays long enough,
to call this place home.
4. The Answerless call
Phone glows in the dark,
your name, a ghost on the screen,
but you never call.
5. The Unfinished Dream
I wrote us in ink,
but time smudged the pages fast,
leaving just your name.
6.The vanishing Light
Candlelight flickers,
just like the warmth in your voice,
fading into night.
7. Footprints in Time
You walked through my life,
but the footprints disappeared,
washed by silent tears.
8. The Last Goodbye
Wind whispers your name,
soft, like the last time you spoke,
then silence took you.

Dark Memoirs - Index There are at least two kinds of people in the world: those who write this half-arsed kind of intro to a story that looks to separate the rare and the norm, and those who realise it's an overused framing device and don't.

Amazing poem! Fantastic 🍎😇
What I really admired was how the poem captures the tension between silence and speech, especially the tension of words left unsaid. It made me think about the conversations we carry with us and how they often linger long after they've ended. The imagery is haunting yet beautiful, and the emotional depth is something I strive to evoke in my own writing. I’d love to hear others' thoughts on how silence plays a role in their own memories and poetry. What emotions did this poem stir in you?
