No Cure

Memory is cruel
Everyday I go through the motions
do the same old things
in the same old ways
The sensations that accompany
don't feel the same
subdued and muted
A taunting reminder of what used to be
before this suffocating gauze
was wrapped around my world
Damn the memory
Damn the sensations
Damn the common cold.

Hey,
The ending triplette of "damn" was interesting I think. It came off slightly mellowdramatic, but it added a final rhythmical pull I thought your piece realy needed in the end.
Interesting style,
MM
