Painful memories always remind-
They cower over your head, patiently waiting..
In a moment of surprise, you don't expect them.
Its when you aren't prepared, that's when they attack.
Taunting you and tempting you, they want you to be crushed.
You keep wondering why you were so naive-
Again and again.....
Listless burning counteracts all those tear filled memories
As you drift off to your next living nightmare,
The memories darken like a street lamp
Flickering in the pitch black night.
