Broken Memories

A cloak of darkness hides each stab of pain,
That willing concealment where I remain
Cocooned in my silent retreat of heart,
A moment's respite that Time can impart.
Reluctant to venture into the light,
To take essential steps that perhaps might
Redeem deadened hopes of love from its grave,
Ignite last embers that I tried to save.
But here I dwell,  so numbed in reverie,
.....I step on shards of broken memories.
