Memories

by francis-tolentino

It's been so long since I was able to feel this This overwhelming power of the sorrow I thought left me The sorrow that left me shivering on the ground all alone Like a child not getting what he/she wants Watching this whole forest I've grown burnt down in front of my face Walking as it burns around me knowing there's nothing I can do But play in these ashes of the memories you held the closest to you My lungs swollen from these breaths that turn into screams Not able to breath well from the amount of ash I'm breathing in I look back to how I was so happy as the song jingles in my ear Reminding me of someone I cared about How I hurt her and knowing that I lost something that meant something to me Even if the song isn't playing it rings in my ear How blind I was how stupid I've been and how scared I am of my future I'm alone no matter how many people say I'm not Alone is the only place I belong
