The timeless agonies,
regrets and shame.

These things weigh on
a mind painfully.

Haunting memories of a
lost life, a lost love.

In the back reaches
where no one can see.

Always soul searching,
trying to understand.

Pictures of people,
of places.

Things lost forever,
there is no going back.

Feelings always hidden,
silently waiting.

Like demons they
torture their victims.

A heavy heart remembers,
till death do you part.
