Memory
In case the previous post is hard to understand--just look upon it as a poem. Poems might show up here from time to time, when there's something to be said that needs to find expression in that form. This time it was about an old story of mine, a struggle that I did not even know I had, a hurt that I thought was a blessing. Without our knowing, we make rather serious mistakes sometimes! The biggest of them all has got to be the state of being un-authentic (especially with oneself), but that is too large a subject for today.
Having
Having
Slept with the ghost of you
Smelt the putrid stench of your immaculate dreams
Drowned in the love that never was
Having
Left you behind
Washed off the lies
Burnt the damaging bonds
I look up.
