Dark memories haunt my life
As I try to push them away

They come back again
Like they are here to stay

I know I can't forget the pain
I know I can remember every detail

Its sick, Its sick, It makes me sick

Was it all just a nightmare?
Because I've had so many
Was it all just nothing?

If it was then why is it so vivid?
Why is it so real?

I can see the laughing faces
it haunts my mind
just when i think i've rid of it

It comes back again
I can't feel normal
I can't feel trust

These nightmares of angry monsters
They dont compare
These monsters in the closet
They dont compare

I wish I could know if what happend was true
I wish there was some way, that I could end this
I need to know if this nightmare exists

I haven't told a soul
They'd think I was crazy
I haven't told because I am scared

I am so scared of what might happen
I am scared of being vunerable again
I am scared of what monster I might unleash

Would it then go away if I talked
I can't express how this has stalled so many things
So many times Ive tried to love
So many times, I let it happen
So many times I just watch
As my life is taken away

Do I have no control?
I can't do this anymore
I can't watch myself destruct

I was so young
What have I done to deserve that
what have I done?
I couldnt stop it then
So what makes me think it will end now

I want to think Im stronger
Then I rember,and I freze

I want to belive I can make it
I forget,then somehow I rember

End this pain please someone
Take an eraser and berid of this nightmare in my mind
even so it still exists,
the monster under the bed

Wow, Nice poem.. Ya know its hard to imagine if the person writting the poem has some kinda connection with what they wrote... I am getting this image in my head that is truly sad and depressing. I hope what my image is isnt what really what this poem is about. Nice way to express yourself.. If you need help remember WE ARE HERE!

-*-broken627-*-


when there was so much left to say
you were soft-spoken
in the hardest way
endless waiting for those things,
you could never say
you always knew,
How to break my day
Jacks broken heart
