Hi Everyone ... new here ... so glad I could find a place to share my writing. Any comments are gratefully received ... Hope you enjoy :-)
Dangerous Memories
A sequence of emotions
Cascading through my soul
A terrifying picture
In my mind begins to grow
These endless memories
Still haunt me
This painful reminiscing
Is draining all my energy
A chain of broken promises
Sends my life into disarray
So many different voices
What are they trying to say?
I�m bound by my affliction
Contained within this torturing
Blindly searching for a direction
That will finally set me free
A motionless hour glass
Where these pains are all enclosed
An era, I thought was in the past
But yet it seems so close
Bewilderment creeps upon me
Stagnating my next step
I didn�t notice this danger
When, like a thunderstorm it crept
These dangerous memories
Tactfully poised for jeopardy
Your bow with a venomous arrow
Is aiming straight at me
One strike and I�m sent right back
To where it all began ..
Will I ever find the strength
To finally overcome?
These dangerous memories
Came to disturb my inner peace
Encircling in my mind, like a lion in it�s den
It�s my soul you wish to devour
But I refuse, to again, give in
Dangerous memories
I thought I left you in the past
Thought this gradual healing process
Had taken me away from you at last
So why are you returning
To torture me again?
Inside I feel you burning
The serenity I have gained
Dangerous memories
I beg you for your mercy
Take pity on this tiresome soul
Please don't haunt me for eternity
