Looking through past memories
that keep me grounded through
the darkness have turned up missing.
With this I wonder why should
I even care –
it all leaves in time anyway.
If death does not take a soul,
they up and walk away, never
to return.
This pain grows more, each
and every day as memories
flood back –
they run forward in time, hauntingly.
Everything I touch seems
to die –
turn black and wither away.
Perhaps it would behoove me to
linger more within the shadows that
lay claim to my aching soul.
I no longer wish to feel –
to become numb, that is my goal.
No longer do I wish to reach out
to those whose words break through
the walls I’ve built around my soul –
to die alone, a destiny I cannot seem to let go.
To the ones who are the world to me –
I’ve never forgotten you, nor will I.
