Shadow of a Memory (Acrostic)


Kindly turn and walk away,

Abandoned thoughts have gone astray.

Images allude feelings once had,

Timid eyes have now gone bad.

Looming clouds that hang overhead,

Yerk the soul about things unsaid.

Nobody knows what goes on inside,

Belligerent faces break down and confide.

Relief sets foot on those once timid eyes,

Obtaining questions that they despise.

Wrestles moments have now past,

Never the less, don't deem they last.
