Writing... this poem becomes you

@uootem

Writing... this poem becomes you.
remembering... this emotion becomes me.
writing of emotions that remain... becomes all that we are now.

Words in progression form the verses
serving the undaunted task of this poet
embellishing the 'we' that once existed.

Adjectives of time and place... of loving and losing such.
adverbs to explicate... nouns to limn vivid imagery
rhyming or not I do not care... because I still care too much.

Words to mend wounds endured through time
using pens that bleed but can't erase the pain
scribbles mark the traces of what you still mean to me.

Writing becomes you, but not mere words upon a page
that turn yellow with our age, and cast emotions upon my face
with words that sparkle glow... burn with anxiety.

Writing... this poem becomes you.
remembering... this emotion becomes me.
writing of emotions that remain... becomes all that we are now.
