i have memories

clouded by sorrow

of a time in life

when blood ran though my veins



but these walls keep closing

suffocating

and now i'm trapped beneath

the weight of my own loss



in the company

of my misery

i gasp for air

only to drown

again



unending waves of memories

life's only gife bestowed to me



regret

every moment marks

a breaking of my heart

and now i'm left alone

with this ghost that i've become

for years i've built

this monument of pain

i must find a way

to never feel again
