A story retold
Memories brought back
Flashbacks and pain
A deep guilt resurfaced
Consuming
Long festering beneath the skin
At last coming to the surface
To take control
Puppeting me around
To its will
Through pain
Nightmares
An aching from guilt and shame
Comes eventual strength
Or so I'm told...

At last coming to the surface
To take control
Puppeting me around

Nightmares
An aching from guilt and shame
Comes eventual strength
Or so I'm told...
