Haunted Memories

Haunted Memories

A Poem by *~*Butterfly Kisses*~*
"

Next chapter of my darkness

"

I barely understood this word
"Suicide" - what is that?, locked away 

Beneath the frozen earth

Looking for an escape, freedom.

 

Shadows playing in the moonlight

Taunting me with their dances

Upon the walls, filled with torment

As I am haunted by the memories.

 

Laughing inside my mind,

My demons, of pain and emptiness

As I am kept hidden and locked away

This blackness I hold within my heart.

 

Cockroaches and bugs

Crawling upon the floor, my skin

Their only crime - hunger

As I knock them all away.

 

Screams and shattered glass

A father who never wanted to be

Filled with the toxic posion of life

And alcohol flowing in his veins.

 

Purple and blue, my holy bruises

Drenched in my own misery

The blood of my childhood remains

Stained forever among these walls.
