Why do I remember?

EllaBrady98

Thoughts stir

Vision blurs

And I'm left mending

 

Years of turmoil

Years of struggling

But not now

 

Why am I left with stirred thoughts

Why am I left remembering

I should forget, That's easy right?

 

Over a year away from you

Why do I still feel the pain?

The hitting, the screaming, the belittling?

 

You're far away from me,

All I ever wanted

So stay away

        That’s even better. As I was impressed with not just the subject matter but how bravely you exposed emotion and how dearly you valued NEXT. My hope for you was a soft land with most “shivers “ in the rear window. Salud’
