Forced Memories Poem by kesi miwa

Forced Memories



He never really
left me
although I did escape

He drags me back,
back to the pain
it feels so real

He laughs as
I cry
the pain I feel
it

His smile, I see it
his words, I hear
he says them as
I sink

No one sees me
leave,
its as if I'm
always there

No one sees, and
no one cares

They notice I lie
and time and
time again
they fall for it

He follows me
every where I go
just an evil
shadow

Feel the pain
he put me through
the torture and
the tears

I no longer cry
the tears
from the past

For I cried
my last tear the
day I left

His evil is strong
feel it
as he laughs

As time goes on
and wounds
heal, he returns and
makes them worse

These memories are
forced on me

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Juvela Obi 30 March 2010

Very similar to 'Loudest in the Silence'... In essence, we are the same. Though the ages and circumstances were vastly different, the emotions and psychological effects on us are not. I am not happy that they happened, but I am glad I have finally found someone who sees and understands. If I could go back in time and stop Him from hurting you, I would in an instant. But as it is, I am infinitely glad I am not alone anymore. Thank you for always seeing me when I leave. You saved me, even if you don't know it. I ameternally grateful. I know I see you leave at least some of the time...have I ever not seen? I do my best, but I know I'm not the most observant person around. Have I ever missed it?
