One poem, different conclusions...?!

[Radhika_17]

The Final Adieu...

I stand in the middle..
Middle of nowhere..
Looking in the past..
Not just a glare..
Time flies fast..
Leaving me to fiddle..
With pieces of present..
And the facets of future..
Things to lament..
Nightmares and torture..
Memories to be cherished..
Starting to dwindle..
So i decide to begone..
Dying to kindle..
Known by none..
Before the charm is perished..
Words are swords, that fight ruthless..
Let the hilt hold them dear..
Perspectives change, care joins less..
My fondness shall fade, i truly fear..
Wrath of the world..
Harsh it is always, shall be so..
Relinquish and hurled..
Mate with odium, ennui it shall be..
Retain and reminiscence..
That's what shall be done..
If nothing cant be better..
I'll not kill it to none..
Mending the broken letter..
You shall see me by the fence.. 

~ Radhika

I wrote this poem in reminiscence of an old friend...!
I would like to know what do you decipher from this poem and why?

[LivreAmour217]

First of all, I'd like to say that I really enjoyed reading your poem.I got the impression that its about a memory of friend, and that the friendship may not have ended on the best terms--the "words are like swords, that fight ruthless" line gave me that impression. But I might have been projecting an experience of mine on your words. I sometimes think about a former friendship that I broke off rather harshly and the memories are bittersweet--your lines "things to lament" and "memories to be cherished" remind me of that time.

I also get the impression that your poem might be about the passage of time in general, and looking back over both the good and the bad moments of life. Again, it's a great poem

I take it as a relationship that was broken at some point and that you are hoping it will be able to be mended in the future somehow (your standing by the fence waiting for it to be mended by the two of you). I get this overall impression because of the regret that seems very apparent throughout the entire poem and how it seems the hurt has been poured over again and again trying to reconcile these emotions with the experiences in the friendship. That is what I got from your interesting poem. Hopefully I am not too far from the mark.

Dear Livreamour217

Quite a good interpretation, I must say! Deep thinking dude! That's what makes us, the readers better from others! We can always create another ends! I won't say you nailed it exactly but yes, very close!

Dear Rssllue,

Impressive interpretation, I must say! Yes, you guessed it right! Regret exists, in a huge amount, but not entirely! Still, kudos! And thanks for the appreciation
