after all these months,
one would think it would've been forgotten
spewed anger frustration hurt and pain
after all, the new had reigned supreme
the old should be locked away and buried
yet in the corner of the closet
lay the memories returned
unwilling to be revisited
for fear of the emotions unfurl
yet time and again
the flashbacks on constant replay
the questions surge with ferocity
barging into every area
creeping and seeping into every corner
one cannot help forget
but instead always remember
no, never could forget
when given a lifetime of remembrance
so like a broken record, it plays
on and on repeatedly
everyday to be missed
every second wonder
are the thoughts likewise
is the existence known
if only for a word or two
the very sound, a second of voice
terribly missing
never stopped loving
the pain, the hurt, the sting, the hollow
perhaps a constant battle
a struggle, a fight to the finish
to keep a lid on things
never to be mentioned again
or even thought of again
if only one knew
the agony of the unknowing
or perhaps this is for the better
as brutal truth may end in shreds
ever so tempting to make a connection
but barred but promises made
held back by fear of rejection
one cannot bear another round of insults
nor empty words of care
this by far will haunt forever
please Lord, give strength.
