Twisted MemoriesA Poem by Scarlett MoonWe can only run so fast But the memories always last They chase and follow And leave us hollow Through every twist and turn They sizzle in a slow burn Swallow us like a dark mist Choke us with its vengeful fist They haunt us over the years Make us shed sorrowed tears We can’t escape these Twisted Memories
Your death still haunts my mind But I keep it where none can find A dark tinge on my soul I can never be whole Trapped inside perpetual night Swallowed away from the light Part of me died with you You meant more to me than you knew With a bang I began to drown My smile has turned into a frown I can’t escape these Twisted Memories © 2011 Scarlett Moon |
