Yesss... and it doesn't stop with age... they never go away. Dreams that turn into nightmares... how many times does that happen to us? Too many.

scattered dusty memories and used up yesterdays
with scars that last from days gone past in hues of blacks and greys

Those lines are not only poetic, but they spell it out perfectly. As content as I am with my life, there are still those dark corners that can't be ignored.

That is kind of a sad piece. 'Used up yesterdays' something you would write on a rainy day, I think. Very nice beat, easy to read. I sometimes feel this and just write it down. I hope it helped you. thanks for sharing this little piece.

Nicely done. I really liked the alliteration. Your poem
read very smoothly with a nice rhythm. So, true
our memories do seem to keep popping up (even the
unwanted ones).

Dear Chanphy,

This is quite a depressing and dark poem you have written. It makes you feel the agony of your past, reaching out grabbing the reader by the throst. Well done.

Warm regards,

Winslow

This is an good piece about something we all have experienced. The words are put together beautifully creating a nice flow. The rhyming is good and consistent throughout the piece. The title got my attention but the words kept it. Good job.

A powerful poem about dreams using alliteration and internal rhymes, "contained inside the cobalt tide." A well presented posting.

I really liked these lines-
never to be mended in the tattered threads perceived
knotted in the fabric of the falsehoods I believed

and these lines-
How proudly they parade in gaudy colors crimson laced
to radiate so fiercely from the fears I haven't faced

Those were my favorite. Overall, it came off very well. Good flow, it felt smooth. I liked the enjambment in it, it added some texture.

Job well done!
