    Poem Commentary

    This poem was written on June 25th 2008. Truly, people come and people go...it just so happens that some people who go tend to come again...and yet...be gone forever!

    My Mind and Heart are Playing Tricks on Me

     It’s still thumping! Thump! Thump…thump…

    It never stops!

    My heart is still beating too fast.

    With the phone by my hand,

    and the used calling card on the other,

    the smile still lingers on my bubbly face.

    The voice is still echoing…

    echoing…

    echoin…

    ech    oi…

    echo..

    ech...

    ec…

    e…

    ...

    Who would have thought that

    by just hearing that familiar voice

    after hundreds of years

     could awaken something within me?

     And who would’ve believed that

    within those minutes of conversing,

    memories that have been already buried

    came back alive and fresh again?

    The feeling is like re-living the “what have been”

    and hoping for “what could have been”.


    The feeling is too overwhelming!!!

    It’s like feeling all kinds of emotions in one shot!

    But sadness and longings overpower the others.

    It’s too much to bear!


    W-Why??

    H-How??

    Oh, forget it!


    It’s just my mind playing tricks on me!


    …but my heart is…


    Never mind!

    thanks, dah! =)

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
