    Don't Remember Me

    the past stabs forth
    ...and new scabs form
    over old wounds left over from the last storm
    when life went rampant and rainy rage coinsided
    we were left soaking wet...
    with noone to go inside with
    and we both decided, that it was for the best
    I never spoke;
    Confided underneath my heavy breath
    that I wanted you to stay here
    theres nothing more today, dear
    except a cold handshake
    and a muttered going away cheer
    these memories flash to me much too fast to see
    that I had no boarding pass...
    ...the plane of love flew past me
    and these missed opprotunities
    showed that my heart was new to me
    and I misplace affection by fighting against the unity.
    So we're no longer an item,
    to be bought, sold or borrowed
    maybe in the future I will remember our tomorrows
    but I want you to pass me by
    with less than a lasting sigh
    because we were a staring contest,
    but never seeing eye to eye
    now you must embrace the fact that you're free
    turn around, don't look back...
    I don't want you to remember me.

    Be Well.

    Oooo I liked this Mave'. It seemed different from your usual
    pieces for some reason. Your flow was obviously excellent
    & the idea of the title. The title suggests a question to me
    like "Don't remember me?", but in the end you dint want the
    person to remember you. Nice touch. Vocab and consistency
    was sustained well which ya normally do anyways.
    Short and snappy pieces always catch my attention.
    Props.

    Hit this plz: be Critical as possible

    Lovely piece Maven. . flow was like a river. I love your pieces, they're always different and very enjoyable to read. I too thought it was going to be like you asking "Don't Remember Me ?" and you were going to give reasons why, but you caught me off guard. Everything was worded just right, the whole piece was excellent. The ending was especially dope. You need to get on AIM soon, I haven't talked to you in awhile. I'm not a shoemaker, whore.

    ^ ^ The especially dope ending, great job man.

    The structure was HORRIBLE .. lol ..

    .. but aside from that it was cool, nice to see you're actually getting down Multi's, to work with Flow, yet still keeping the content and going somewhere with it .. you've improved since i read anything by you last, opener was cool, but the wording was off.

    the past stabs forth
    ...and new scabs form
    over old wounds left over from the last storm

    The 'over' used twice in the same line made it ehhh .. could of possibly used 'remaining' instead of the second over?

    It ran well from then on, up till this point:

    these memories flash to me much too fast to see
    that I had no boarding pass...
    ...the plane of love flew past me

    Flash To Me, Fast To See, Past Me

    The last one was a syllable-off which threw it slightly there. Mehhhh .. you probably think im being picky, but im honestly not - its moinor things like that affecting the flow that stand out fairly obvious when reading pieces. I actually enjoyed this, as i said, its dope your usingh more internals / multi's / flow and still keeping the content, there just a few minor flaws to correct here and there.

    And please, ditch that structure. Lol. If your piece is gonna be laid out like that, put it in Tahoma and leave it on the left. It's less of an eye sore :^)

    WORD P e r f e c t !

    nice emotive piece. Structure was odd but it flowed quite nicely nontheless. Nice short piece - some irony there. Liked:

    "So we're no longer an item,
    to be bought, sold or borrowed"
    and

    because we were a staring contest,
    but never seeing eye to eye
    Baron already commented on the two "overs" this line stood out a bit too:

    "and I misplace affection by fighting against the unity."
    the tense seemed wrong to me. Nice work though - hit my ELEETE collab if you haven't already. (Two Geniuses - One Mind)

    ummm... i disagree with baron.. the two 'over's were used differently... so it has something to it... as for the structure... it was fine you just have to read the pauses in the flow...

    overall i good drop with vivid imagery....

    keep working and peep my open mic....
    Hence Forward

    Well damn, I liked this piece...ALOT.

    It had some sort of poetic feel to it, which is different from most of the shit you see in here. And different's good.

    Ya structure was amazing, and you produced some sort of imagery that made me feel as if I were there myself. You had nice vocab, and you multies were used sparingly.

    If I can add, this may be the best piece i've seen in here lately, Its just refreshing.

    Keep up the good work, cuz ima be a regular viewer of your writing. So it better be up to par, or else i'm gonna pick you apart like C-section does anus.
    My conscience was fucking with me...so I shot it
