Haunting Thoughts

My thoughts haunt me

Memories full of shame

Invisible so you can’t see my face

These shadows won’t release me

Mouth stitched shut

There’s so much blood

I call for help but I can’t scream

I guess I’m stuck

 

There’s no escape

When these demons

Live inside of me

Setting fire to the heavens

They are the ones

That should be shamed

For making me this way

 

Every time I close my eyes

I see him slowly die

Even when I smile

I’m crying on the inside

I will never understand why

He didn’t get to live a life

 

I’m damned to these shadows

I want him to know

That his heart is what I hold

These haunting memories

Will never go

My life is forever cold
