Late night, early day
Imbibed with alcohol and haze
Watching a movie we used to see
I remember us falling asleep.

I tried so hard when you had left
To watch the movie, but yet
It wasn't my thing, I kept falling asleep.

As I as napped, I heard
"Unforgettable, in every way..."
"Unforgettable, that's what you say...."
A tear of love falls down my cheek
How the thought of you makes me regret...

All the things I wish I'd said
I thought I'd see you again someday
Yet all the claims I thought I'd stake
To vacant air I do repeat
"Unforgettable, in every way"
My heart, my friend.
My Dusk, my Dawn.
Adieu

Now is that what happened during all the matrix movies you watched? :) It's a very powerful piece, ignore my amusing comments, I only jest.

Good use of quotations. They're misused so often.

lol...nah, a different movie. BTW, you forgot to tell me that I mis-spelled "Thinking"....I actually spelled it "Thinkings". I KNEW that looked wrong at 3am, but I thought it was just the alcohol. 0_0
my my, i'm sorry ;) next time I'll give you heck for any mis-spellings. BIG HECK!

You've outdone yourself, Byron... :heart:

I often listen Natalie Cole's CD... and Unforgettable sure is one of my fav. :)

Sad poem of course... but this is, by far, one of the best poem I've read in these days...
Reading good writings make me filled with joy. :) (I am proud to be a geek. =P)
I really love this. :hug: :+favlove:
Thanks Pixie! Most people don't take the time to sit and read poems, especially if there's no picture. I think I'm going to start trying to comce up wtih a photo or something to go along with the writing, even if it's nothing special.

Natalie Cole's CD version was actually the one I was referring to! We listen to the same music! Woot! =)
beautiful :) wonder why sadness touches us soo deeply :|

"a tear of love" ... wow really liked that part

hope things work out for the best :hug:
Ah, thanks for the vote of confidence!

Background: My girlfriend at the time tried on several occassions to try and get me to watch this movie. Each and every time I try, I end up falling asleep. Time goes on, girlfriend leaves and feelings are hurt. A couple nights back, myself and a totally unrelated group of friends pop a movie in after a night of hanging out at a bar and, lo and behold, it's the same movie. Hurt feelings arise and I, sober, start driving home. The cd in the car happens to be on the one particular song my then-girlfriend had sung to me so many moons ago.

And that's how the poem came about. For me, it's not a particularly *sad* poem, it's just one that brings back memories of a wonderful friendship and of a wonderful person that sadly I no longer communicate with.
If you ever need with photography, please feel free to let me know. I might be a tiny help. :hug:
