White Lines

Small white lines of indented flesh,

They spell out the words I heard

And could never speak of

Memories I refuse to reimagine

Not in my wildest dreams

Bringing me back to this moment

Contemplating the very edge

Of existence, over and over

Never daring to step past

Too scared of what lies

Just beyond these white lines.
