What can only be described as the sound of velcro being ripped away from felt, was similar to the way I ached when you walked away.
Quick almost painless but a slow burn as the feeling settled.
Then, nothingness.
But as I try to peel the bandaid away like my protective shield being dropped. The wound you left isn't as visible.
If I press hard enough, my faded memories come back.
pain that I know all too well.
Then I realize no matter how hard I try to heal, the sensation will always be prominent. The scar may be gone but your dark memory lingers.
