Twisted Memories

Twisted Memories

A Poem by Scarlett Moon

We can only run so fast

But the memories always last

They chase and follow

And leave us hollow

Through every twist and turn

They sizzle in a slow burn

Swallow us like a dark mist

Choke us with its vengeful fist

They haunt us over the years

Make us shed sorrowed tears

We can’t escape these

Twisted Memories

 

Your death still haunts my mind

But I keep it where none can find

A dark tinge on my soul

I can never be whole

Trapped inside perpetual night

Swallowed away from the light

Part of me died with you

You meant more to me than you knew

With a bang I began to drown

My smile has turned into a frown

I can’t escape these

Twisted Memories

I live in a small town in Alabama. Graduated in 2012. Poetry is my favorite form of writing, but I have the imagination of a little kid so fictional stories come natural to me. I always enjoy feedback.. more..
