Echoes

A Poem by MCS
"

“Trauma is a fact of life. It does not, however, have to be a life sentence.” ~ Peter A. Levine, Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma

"





Long narrow shadow


Stretches ahead


Regardless of the sun



 

Cold is felt


As memories flood


Bringing forward images



 

Of times best forgotten


The echoes of a heartache


That will not heal

You've captured heartache's haunting feeling in both Title and Verse, MCS.
You're right, it does not have to define us! :)

It reflected the shadow of unresolved memories and strong emotions for me. "The echoes of a heartache, That will not heal", it's true because pain cannot heal easily even though time flies.
