Tears of Painful Memories


Me

Why?

Why me?

My heart races.

Overwhelming guilt.

The taste of forceful lips.

Burning of fingers on my hips.

Trying not to panic at every sound.

The sneaking and hiding from everyone.

Regret and fear race through my thoughts.

The sadness masked by the fakest smile.

The pain that won’t seem to disappear.

Darkness taking over everything,

Dictating my happiness.
