“Forbidden”

The memories of the forbidden zone,

 

Will ever outshine the rest.

 

This new adventure to a new home,

 

It feels, somehow, like a sick kind of test.

 

The test to see if I have grown.

 

Have I at all in this time?

 

The questions do not feel like my own,

 

They feel like those for who I rhyme.

 

I try to impress them but they merely sigh,

 

“His newest obsession,” they all cry

 

The memories of the forbidden zone,

 

Were some of the worst, and best of my life.
