Memories.

Memories.

A Poem by Poe Met Emily

I cannot breathe so easily,
clawing at the vice around my neck.
My chest is pounding, aching,
and my vision blurs.

Please, I can beg if you want.
Please, I can become weak.
Please, I can die here.

A white knuckle fist,
my eyes grow wide, watching
in slow motion as you draw closer.
I think so quietly, "This will hurt."

Please, I can beg if you want.
Please, I can become weak.
Please, I can die here.

Years have dragged on,
but there are reminders all around,
taunting, stalking, leering
into the back of my head.

Please, I can't beg anymore.
Please, I need to be strong.
Please, I still die here.

Now I love this, all that emotion in every word
I could see these as lyrics, nicely written.
