I taste the memory on my lips
that lasting touch upon my skin
But I don’t know to who it belongs
I cannot separate him from him
Entangled with them
trapped between two monsters
torturous reminders
are holding me captive.
The invisible scars
chain me to them
an escape, I can only wish.
And if the only way is through
to feel and to release,
does that mean I must let them in
to intrude on my day
and disturb my dreams?
Where there is frozen terror
and I cannot scream
as two of them are taking me.
And when will I know,
when the end is near,
where I can close my eyes
and feel at peace?
When they will no longer
haunt my dreams
where my bonds will be broken
and I will be free?
