Painful Past

As I look back at my past, 

The numbness felt inside was so vast.

The locked away memories stream out into a rushing river of pain,

Lying there in that one moment of looking back I realized the sad truth I had nothing to gain.

Having the memories playing out in my head like a sad show,

I pray that the loud silence haunting me would go.

Wondering why I chose to remember after forgetting took so long,

In these nights it became clear to me I was hearing the lyrics of my own sad songs. 

Trying hard once again in deep silent dungeons of my mind,

I lock away the memories of my painful past that's so unkind.
