Fading Memories
Energized as I walk the
labyrinth of our past
Revisiting yesterday
Losing myself in what was
Falling in love again
Flirting with affection
Dancing in infatuation
Repenting in my sins
Recollecting my shame
Stopping to feel the pain
Of heartache
The agony of defeat
The disappointment of failure
The hurt of betrayal
Baffled by how it ended
How two people so in love
Could inflict so many wounds
on each other.
To the point where the blood was
Flowing like a crimson river.
Draining the veins of life.
Scrambling to heal the wounded.
Desperately searching for a way
to hold onto the dreams of yesterday.
Dreams like kite strings swiftly
flying away.
Forever lost.
Carried away by the ever shifting wind.
One thing remains constant,
I loved you.
