Broken Memories

Broken Memories

A Poem by Suzanne Janfada Balov
"

You can only endure so much pain before you break. When you overcome horrible feelings and thoughts you feel powerful, cocky. What happens when those buried photographs come bounding back?

"
Those lost photographs,
Re-embarked on an adventure
To a place where memories where loved,
We were one,
Entwined by mind and soul
But in character
Two people were never as different as they were,
Each broken fragment, clouded by logic
Dug out through the senseless space,
And was welcomed as an unwanted guest,
To the new and profound mind and space,
Blasphemy was uttered at an instance,
We were thrust back into our prison,
But by then our unknown damage was done,
Silence descended upon the buzzing cave,
Not one thought was heard,
Memories started to cripple
And feelings began to numb,
Time was not on our side,
Twas never our best acquaintance 
But if only time had merely breathed for a second,
We would have been ready,
The light I can still see,
It had blinded us all,
To this day we all wander around,
Hoping for someone to help our helpless souls,
But at night we will always visit her,
She rests under dirt and soil,
Denying us entrance, always,
So we will sit by her side,
Dusk till Dawn
Nor her face nor thoughts smile.

Amazing imagery! Nice piece! I can definitely hear the screams and the cry for help. You can really see the helplessness in those words.

The feeling of being overwhelmed is truly captured in this. Reality hits hard when one attempts to avoid it. Very enjoyable piece.
