Deep Inside Poem by Stephan van Pinksteren

I tried to convince myself that you don't really exist.
You are just a voice that lingers deep within my soul.
Slowly eating away at me altering all reality.

Then I see you from a distance.
My heart begins to shatter again.
I reminded by what you did to me.

I try to let the rain wash away the pain,
But the pain will always remain.
Locked away deep inside.

Trapped by the loneliness.
Entwined by betrayal.
And kept alive by the emptiness.

I pray to forget you,
Let you fade away so I can go on.
But your voice has engraved itself into my memory.

Consuming me further into this nightmare,
Leaving me lost.
And forever bound to the pain.
