Sorrow
Cuts and wounds are scars of the past,
a reminder that memories never fade
aggravating pain imprisoned
threatening to break
spill out the lie that has been living inside
Disintegrating oneself to their last suffering
before they are left begging for mercy,
some scars will heal while others will slit open,
a reminder that memories never fade
impossible to "fix" the past
Running is the only choice.
Running away from the pain
away from everything,
from what they know will haunt them
for the rest of their lives
Like an annoying tune stuck in one's head
a bitter ear worm that will never end
draining the last bit of energy
left in their hopeless souls
watching themselves slowly crumble to pieces
Nothing can be done.
Their silent screams heard by no one
fading into the background
No attempts to try to break
the cycle of reoccurring nightmares from repeating itself
Time will go on,
the wind will blow
the blood will flow
the pain will grow
and like a never-ending story,
life will go on.
Sorrow.
