I feel so alone and i don't know why
I know people love me and will always be there
but though I'm told they do, I'm not sure they care
I'm hurting so badly, just dying inside
I seem to be falling a victim of my very own mind
I walk backwards in life, reliving my past
I feel I'm aboard a ship that's sinking fast
one moment I'm as happy as I can possibly get
then I remember what I wish I could just forget
memories so terrible I hate them being recalled
but they pop in from nowhere and leave me appalled
horrific scenes acted out in my head
pictures of violence my mind cant shed
I torture myself for no reason at all
just when i start to climb back up I suddenly fall
into the abyss of memories within my brain
studded with heartache and splattered with pain
the old saying goes forgive but don't forget
that saying I live by and often regret [comments] => 3 [counter] => 141 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Poess [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry ) Your Poetry Dot Com - Memory Resention
