The abyss is full of all but forgotten memories I see their talons reaching for me I don't want them The scars are sickly deep The sting too fresh and yet, they are drawing me in The tang is overly sweet memories tainted with doubt Is that a real smile a real laugh It can't be. I know what comes of what was how can we have been a family how can I have memories of love and of joy when everything becomes dark full of hatred and mistrust The memories are sickly sweet but there's something else they transform in dark shadows they are tainted with the knowledge with an understanding I fear them.

Memories
Whoever said time heals all wounds is a fool. Time is a thief. He waits until you are your most vulnerable. He waits until you are alone. He waits until you are content with life and that's when He strikes. He'll corner you in the dark on your best-known street. He'll beat you and He'll beat you. You will wish you were dead because you don't think you can take much more. And still He'll beat you and He'll beat you. And then, He will give you a break. As soon as you catch your breath He'll begin to beat you and He'll beat you. Until finally, you've had enough. And Time, well, He just laughs in your face. And whispers, but oh so loudly, that you will never heal. He whispers that He will see you soon to beat you. And He'll beat you.

Time
there’s a blank page black keyboard endless possible words and my mind wonders to you the words scream at me so many words

Words
You look But do you see Do you see what lives Behind the veil The veil that is black In the girl The girl that survived The ultimate horror The horror that shouldn’t have happened

Do you see?
Why is it so easy To type the words And yet they stay locked away Until the worst possible time In that box that is everything It rattles and rocks It wont let itself be forgotten In its world of nothing

Everything
Have you ever felt cold In a hot room Have you ever felt that chill In your very core Have you ever felt goosebumps In every crevice of your body Have you ever felt unending dread In the moment everything changed
