The Burden Of Memory
Time,like my mind, runs wild.
I bask in my cold breath, letting out little sobs,
My chest pressed against my knee.
Every inch of me, built to mask my pain.
Shoved. Bruised. Used. I sat there, confused.
The things I let slide, now carved in my brain.
Help! It’s hard to explain.
Hide the mirror, I’ll hide my figure.
The scars on my wrist, evidence of a warrior.
I tug at my chest, haunted by the memory of a fool.
