Circles

I can’t picture my life—
today, tomorrow, or whatever comes next.
A fleeting amnesia of the past,
where mistakes cling like stubborn shadows.
I’ve mastered the art of letting go,
but forgetting?—that’s a different story.
Every step circles back,
even as new melodies try to lead me forward.
Funny, isn’t it? How I keep tripping
over the same old rhythm.
And now, as the world slows down,
I glimpse a fragile shard of happiness—
so delicate, so ready to break.
What once had meaning
could easily turn hollow,
like a joke no one laughs at anymore.
Isn’t it tragic,
if I can’t keep this piece intact?
How long will I run these circles,
repeating the same tired lines, the same old mistakes?
I want to pause—just for a moment,
to step out of this endless loop,
because honestly?
None of it matters anymore.
I crave the vision of a life
that doesn’t feel like a rewind—
one where I’m not the punchline
in some cosmic joke.

You'd think forgetting would be easy but, as you say in your poem, and as I know only too well, it is far from easy. These wounds get partially stitched up but they have a habit of breaking those stitches and at times when you least expect it. And there is no truer line than "none of this matters any more." But no matter how many times you say this to yourself or write it down it does still matter. So, as I have learned, you need to see it as something that you experienced and has helped make the person you are today.Â
You are right, and this is the biggest paradox for me. These wounds made me the one who writes these lines. But at the same time, it seems that it does not matter anymore, and it should be so, but as you said, it suddenly breaks out and the circle begins.
You are right. It is a paradox. My feeling on whether it matters or not is that on a conscious level, it doesn't always matter. It's not something you dwell on continuously but on a subconscious level it does matter which on occasions brings it all back.Â
