SOMETIMES WE FORGET...


Hey guys!! I'm finally back to blogging!!
Changed template...skin and rearranged some nonsense here and there...
But all in all...I've changed the concept of this blog...
Okay so here's a little bit of something I was working on some time now...when I was free...
It's a poem entitled "Sometimes we forget"...
It's basically an inaccurate summary of things that we forget...and the reasons behind them...

SOMETIMES WE FORGET...
Sometimes we forget who God is,
Because we fit Him into whom we want Him to be.

Sometimes we forget our happiness,
Because our joy has been robbed.

Sometimes we forget the sound of laughter,
Because our ears cannot receive what we cannot give.

Sometimes we forget the joy we have shared,
Because that joy did not last forever.

Sometimes we forget what we are angry at,
Because the frustration itself is what we remember.

Sometimes we forget why we cry,
Because the tears from our eyes have blinded us.

Sometimes we forget who our closest friends are,
Because we were always finding them.

Sometimes we forget the people whom we have met,
Because they were simply forgotten-just.like.that.

Sometimes we forget who helped us,
Because we are just so prideful.

Sometimes we forget that attracting attention is harmful,
Because we are repelling people’s respect for us.

Sometimes we forget to be nice and kind,
Because we think being sarcastic and snarky makes us more intellectual.

Sometimes we forget that we are young adults,
Because being a child is so liberating and carefree.

Sometimes we forget our purpose and destiny,
Because the world has caught up to us.

Sometimes we forget to take off our masks,
Because we fit so well into those roles.

Sometimes we forget who we are,
Because we were trying to be who we aren’t.

Well...a poem's a poem...and not everyone is as expressive as Picasso...
Gonna blog more often now...as promised...
