Poem : I will forget you someday
89I will forget you someday
You said “Hi!”
I said “Yes?”
You asked “What is your name?”
I asked, “But why?”
I felt so stupid
“I am just curious”, you said
Then I gave you my name
“My name is Lyera”
“Thank you“, you responded
Then added, “What a beautiful name!”
I looked at you
“You were the first person to tell me that aside from my mother“, I said
I said “Thank you” and bowed my head
You said “Can I have your number?“
“But why, isn’t my name enough?, I don’t give them to strangers”
“I am not a stranger anymore, my name is Othie,” you said
“And so?” I responded
You laughed at me
“Are you angry or mad” you asked
I said, “No, why should I be”
You just shook your head and you smiled at me
I felt I am a weird and smiled back
“You have a beautiful smile, and I like your eyes”
“They are big black eyes and are penetrating, lovely” you said again
“Okay here is my number”, I said and smiled back
That was the beginning
Of a love I once experienced
A love that was so pure
So intense and so warm
I thought it would last forever
I was just dreaming
I woke up this morning
And I touched my bedside
I though I felt something there
But you were gone
All that was left was my love and the memories
Bitter sweet memories
That’s all there is to it
How is it that love could be so easy
And forgetting is too long
How is that when I look everywhere
Your memory is still here
And you continue to haunt me
Maybe one day, I can forget you
Like I forget how many winters passed by
Surely the spring will give me hope
Until next summer again
By then I shall have forgotten you!
- You are forever mine
Its been awhile and long You came to my life When I dont know else what to do Bu then you call my name And you were there You're always there Always listening to what I have to say To my...

Maita there is not a person I know that has not experienced these feelings at one time or another . I love that line love is so easy but forgetting so long ! But like you said one day we forget and we move on . The sun does come up the next day ! Be well my friend .
It's true, Maita... I like that line, "Love could be so easy and forgetting is too long." How could that be? Hmmm...I really like to blurt it out now, but I can't. It's a long story to tell. My husband might stumble across this comment of mine.
Thanks for sharing. Nice poem, Maita... I love it!
i love this one . great job
Haunting memories, they come and go. Rather than forgetting, it's better to concentrate on now, and on making now as sweet as you can. Peace, PDH
great poem Maita.
it was very true.
Ooo, I think you shall never forget Maita. He musta been something. What is your number? hehe Loved it by the way. And the pictures were almost as perfect as your poem.
*sigh* you just made me remember a love lost and Joey Albert's song - I Remember the Boy, But I Don't Remember the Feelings Anymore. Hope it will be like that with you - you won't forget but you won't feel the pain anymore. Lovely poem Maita. :)
I enjoyed reading yourlovely poem.....
I enjoyed reading yourlovely poem.....
I agree, forgetting is too long. Great poem prettydarkhorse!
hi
Your hyperactivity in hubs forum drew me to you. happy hunting
Maita is a very beautiful name. There nothing as painful as the anguish of the heart. Oh, I've been right there, dear. I pray your heart is healed and that you are comforted.
Great poem Maita! Boy, isn't it hard to forget sometimes. Especially if you are still exposed to the things that use to have meaning when you were a couple. Like the smell of his cologne, favorite meal, and etc. But, there is one thing that will make you forget that person and that is a new love. :)
well i will be the fourth i like your name too.... is it your real name.. nicely written
It has to be better to have loved and lost.
Otherwise we live in the dark all the time.
I guess a past love can even cast some illumination at times.
Thanks for dropping by "my place".
Thanks for the kind words.
A beautiful poem, powerful imagery, and emotionally moving. Well done! :D
This was beautiful- feelings very well expressed which is what i can relate to. I am loving the vivid imagery too!
This is a lovely poem. I enjoyed reading it. And I agree with Dohn121. I am always amazed by people who simply move on as soon as a relationship is over.
Beautiful Poem like the pictures too
Another Sweet Poem, Sweet Maita. Yes, memories are forever, yet I feel that such encounters should be committed to verse and song. I wrote a little song about one with a message. I know that you will understand.

Let's make memories.
Sweet...just take some time and smell the roses.
great poems.
thank you lady for all of your inspiration.
Beautiful poem Prettydarkhorse, you're a great writer :-)
Another beautiful poem! Thank you, it was a pleasure reading it.:-)
Wonderful writing - relationship is always built on the strong feelings of love...
My sweetest Kaibigan...
First time I stop to read your poems! What a beautiful and a sad thing at the same time! Why, life can be so hard sometimes, but you learned and you grew inside! Love will come. Do not seek for it, it will kneel before you, when you let go! Trust me, deary!
Thumbs up!
Warmest regards and infinite eternal blessings,
Al
Sure, My Kaibigan...
It would be a pleasure to!
And remember: I am AL for you...
Mystique does not sound like my kaibigan...Hehehe!
I certainly will not forget you and your extraordinary writing ability and the way you can move your readers into another time and place ..... words adore you and I can see why!
Hi, Maita. I really love this poem. So deep in longing and sadness. I can feel it. You did great job.
Very Nice Maita.. bit of a dark horse with poetry huh? We have all been here and it's ok to give your heart away.. But Not your phone number lol. And as far forgetting is concerned..forget it! Don't punish yourself, love is not designed to be a power to forget. That is what determines the depth of the emotion. Thanks for sharing PDH. Take care.
..actually you're pretty hard to forget - that's why I'm back!!!
when I read " I thought it would last forever
I was just dreaming
I woke up this morning
And I touched my bedside
I though I felt something there
But you were gone"
I got chills up my spine. . .this was so beautiful Maita. . thanks for sharing this one. Rated up and beautiful .. truly it is a beautiful read.
I hope love will heal you completely, Maita, wrap you up in its fickle arms and take you to a better memory. To love and have been loved, sweet. Your poem is beautifully expressed.
wow.... I really liked it. Beautiful poem. Keep up the good work
You have a talent Prettydarkhorse, for writing exactly what you need to write so your reader can join you in your special and intimate journey - I loved the way you used dialogue and so cleverly and convincingly - I was there when you met and I heard the words too and felt how you felt . . . so I know now how you feel since this love stopped . . . except it hasn't has it PDH - it is still there - in your heart and in your heart's memories, all the ones you shared with all of your friends who read your words.
Thank you - I am wondering though; your poetry is beautiful but have you ever thought of writing this love-experience as a story? There is novel there and I would read it for sure.
Maita - well he was only speaking the truth - you do have a beautiful name! And no mater how you felt when he left, you were able to experience that wonderful feeling of love. You gave that love and from so much I have read your work, are a very loving person. You only lost that one guy. But you still hold that love in your heart. You win!
it's all easier said then done. but i do still agree with every1 here. only time will tell
Just the title was enough to summon deep emotions. It's sad to have someone pass through your life who so profoundly impacted you yet because of all our human failings cannot be there forever. Maybe forever is something that should be discarded... that way we can make today important.... I wonder if I've been forgotten... I can assure you that he won't forget you...
You have no IDEA how much I relate to this :)
touching, emotional , greeat hub
thanks for shring
Wow Prettydarkhorse , this is great !, And interesting. Always being a shy person , I thought, Its so easy for a woman to love. All she has to do is say ,yes! I think it's different for a guy . Maybe it's just me! But I love this poetry.
i really like your poems
I loved this poem. That last line...ohhhhh. Kudos!
Lovely poem, I will forget you someday!!!
Beautiful poem, i hope i could forget then again i´m not sure if i want the memories to go away.
A lovely poem. It's saddest, of course, when you can't forget them yet they do forget you. Sigh!
depressing but lovely...sometimes, the best way to hold on is to let it go..! :)
The pain is always in the letting go. Thank you for this beautiful poem!
Not to dash your hopes of forgetting, but it's been 20 years and I still remember her. The way she smiled, the way she smelled, the way she made me feel. It fades a bit, but it's still there like a shadow that won't leave your side. It fades in the darkness, but it's always still just behind you.
Voted up and beautiful.
I can feel your pain by your poems, you are one of the girls whose really hard to get. So i believe that you love him so much. And then leave you at the end.
I know someday you will forget him, time heals everything.
Relationships are hard to move on from and you have written that well with in this poem. Voted up.
awesome one

Great poem, Maita. Letting go is not easy, because if it was, then the the entire relationship was insignificant. Sunny days are just ahead :)
