A Writer's Curse

As with your previous, the commas are truly unnecessary (except mid line), as the line breaks are the pause.
In regards to the closing couplet - I feel eternal would suffice, as eternal indicates unforgotten.  'And never forgotten' seems a bit anticlimactic following eternal. Perhaps a revision to 'Eternally unforgotten' would flow better and retain the climax.

I enjoyed the sentiment of this very much - the content is unique.  Again, welcome to the Deep Side.

Thank you for that again, much much appreciated :)

Wow that's deep yow 😪

Thanks again :) and happy new year

This was pretty amazing, Helena, reminds me of the
Greeks beliefs on immortality, living on
in memory for generations to come.
Beautiful poetry....

Thanks so much Kasai...you know my name Helena, means "truth" ;)

And there is great truth in those words, at least for me.  In some way, it is the only way I hope I can be remembered. As Hemingway once said "writing at best, is a lonely job".  In my case, lately I'm writing about the ghosts I encounter and yet, I had failed to realise that in doing so, I've become one myself.  So perhaps, even if my presence goes mostly unnoticed in this life, I can find life after death as people remember.

we write as we are destined to write,
& having written, the author, the poet, is the first to be joyful of the poem;
as for being remembered, that's beyond the poet's control.

excellent verse...

We do indeed create.  I learned the power of words as a young girl, when I immersed myself in a world of books.  And words, have the power to haunt us, by becoming memories...

Thanks so much for that John :)

A very beautiful write, short and beautiful. Pen on :D

Thanks so much soulful-kev :) I really appreciate the time you've taken to stop by and read my work

I really liked all of this but for me the first stanza is a stanza of power, really gripped mr by the throat and gave me a shake :-)

terrific Ink :-)

;) thanks for that

I felt the words passionately and wrote them in moments of pain, realising that most often, pain is what drives me to write.  ;)
