In the silence of the night
a lifetime of
Rated-R memories
creep up
emerging
from the depths of my mind
to haunt me.
Unwelcome guests.
Old memories
sometimes faint
often in vivid detail
Booming
echoes of the past.
Disturbing.
And unsettling
like ghosts
they linger—
Whispering in
reverberating decibels
You Worthless
Wretched soul
I wear the past
as the present
its cloak
chilling me
to the core.
Unsettled.
Rated-R memories
they remain
A midnight symphony
of unease
Old memories
that never
cease.
