Here's where I post my serious poetry. The other topic "Weird Poetry" was just for my joke poems.

I Remember, You Remember
I don't remember a thing
It's all a blur to me
In a trance of forgetfulness
My memory in a bin
In the whereabouts of "unknown location"
Desolate on an atoll, in the middle of a sea
I can't recall my name
I cannot visualize, in my head, a photograph of myself
I don't remember at all
You, on the other hand, remember in its entirety
Traumatically, you sing in ecstasy
Everything is overkill in your heart
Distraught by fear and negligence
You left (time to get away)
In a city of vague purpose and imagery
Where every fool begs to succumb to alienation
And you smile without a damn
Bewildered about my comatose home
Surrounded by a tranquil modem
We, as human beings, don't know the gag
Living in an age of nihilistic hopes and dreams
Moving on, we forgot about the time we spent waiting
For if I lived, I'd already be stone cold dead
And if you died, you'd already live to tell the tale
Uncertainty reigned.
A castaway introduced to machines for dreams
While in a nightmare of a reality
And I'm lost in a memory, mystery obliged
So... celebrate it.
