The Blue Techno Memorandum
.....in pictures, words
and sounds.....
I've been told .....
so many times
that when life's sorrows
blow through
like a strong, straight line wind
the memories
of the good times
the love,
battles won
will
pull you through
in the end
yet.....
….they haunt me the most
they cut me like a knife
burn my soul like brimstone fire,
hurt so badly until
I can only cry
sorrowful tears falling
I wince in agregious pain
begging, pleading
at the top of my lungs,
watching my life roll briskly by
I feel like
I will never gain my bearings
again
My heroes
my loved ones
even my precious mother's love.......
…..all dying away
and I'm left here alone
wondering why ?
I have no more fight
everyday looks like a nightmare
I can't breathe
Please, let me breathe,
gasping for air
lest I die in insurmountable pain
gazing deeply into
every moment
every memory
my ears grasp hold to
every verse,
every song
and my fingers
try and capture
every single tear drop
upon withered fingertips
salty waters to soothe
my parched lips;
I can hardly hold on....
.....just another memory gone wrong, erased
" I, Robot
The nanites come to purge me all away "
….and I can't stand one more minute
frozen in my tracks
they drive the nails
into my hands
and I
can not
find my
way back......
…...from the searing pain
of memories,
the love,
the laughter,
the joy
tears falling
beyond my fears
being forced to
knock upon deaths angry, laughing door
not understanding why
I am not saved
from the beautiful ashes
of my memories......

This was sad and depressing to read. And in my current state of mind, the gloom of this ink makes me want to take a few shots of cognac. (...that's how powerful the pain in your words were written.) Beautifully done Archie! I'd offer support but hell, I have my own issues.. yet, I'm here if you need a friend.

...and the Encouraging thing about moments, especially of this kind, is that they do not last long. You have to know that it really is perfectly fine to feel every single thing that you've felt here. Stay there for a moment, experience what you need or will because it does get better... I promise. ;-)

Raw... honest... vulnerable... this poem resonates deeply with me!
Loss... a main theme in my life...
Please, let me breathe > I feel you on this one!
It was in the first version of my latest writing, but I removed it (it will be in another one)
