The fight to inhale... the exhale, shaking
Deep repulsions, body aching.
No words to express the impact I’m taking
Having to accept that there are no more “memories in the making.”

Meaningless words that once caressed my ear lay scattered in pieces in a hidden chest
Put away memories of when those words weren’t meaningless.

Destroyer ! - Unexplained reasons of why you left me for her.
A wanted explanation but there’s no comparison to set us in
Lessons learned and “forgotten,” but really stored in another bin.

Winds stronger than the fight,
the water has no meaning but to take you one way
and let me drown.
I surrender my every emotion to the waves drifting
Attempts of catching my breath,
head barely lifting
I’m hit.
And as I’m tossed and turned I learned
it was time to turn and toss away
everything in me that was once my everything
Yet for some reason you still seem to be walking the shore just fine...

Remind me.
These are more than just memories, even the ones I can’t remember!
I may look like your weakest contender,
but you’ll never see someone fight against tide
like I have.
Finding my way to the shoreline, soaked head to toe
Drenched and shivering in remaining fears and unregretted hurt,
unable to solve the mystery of why we didn’t work.

I’ll leave the memories in the mystery and forgive all crimes,
I’m busy making new memories along my own shoreline.
