I Miss The You I Once Knew - Visitor's Poem

by Gargi Mandal Mukherjee
(NJ, USA)

The Visionary

The Visionary

EXISTENCE

I carry you about
Within me
Or
Maybe without :
A void
That gives meaning
To my presence,
The spectral past
That haunts
Daunts
Taunts
My formless future.

When we met,
Uncertain partners
In the locus
Of a labyrinthine doubt,
Our shadows struggled,
Strived, distraught,
To see
Through
The distance,
To ribbon
The romance
Of the present,
Our present.

My tomorrow,
For the moment,
Is fraught,
Just a stray, scary thought…
Wafting through
The wilderness
Of what may never
Have happened…

If so…
What am I…
Who are you…
Why is it we fought…
What is it we sought…
And
What have our memories
All been about?

We have, perhaps,
All been at fault...

A garland of emotions
by: Barnali

Gargi,

Your poem is unique and sentimental, it is a garland of beautiful emotions that evoke feelings of love and friendship. It is a poem that makes you feel good about life despite the thousand hardships we face.

Wonderful work and I wish to see more such inspiring poems from you.

So much within so little
by: Fion

Hi Gargi, thanks very much for your beautiful poem! There's much meaning within these short little lines. A longing for the past and uncertainty for the future. Really enjoyed these lines:

"To ribbon
The romance
Of the present,
Our present."
