Held Down


Held down by force The force of fear, Past memories crawl back to haunt, torment It hangs itself above your head Attached, reminding you how bad you had it. Slithering down your spine, Tasting every bone in your body Savoring your every sweat and tear feeding on you pain Laughing at your mistakes Mocking your very existence Like an atheist to God No more stories Proof, Proof.
