Memories Still Haunt Me

Memories still haunt me.
No words no illusions 
just the scars that show.
I try to breath but my mind
keeps me awake. The torture 
you put me through.
The marks upon my body 
will never leave me.

Memories still haunt me.
The darkness is taking over
I can't shake the nightmares
I live every waking moment,
seeing you everywhere.
My heart races with every breath
I take. 

Memories still haunt me.
I can't escape this horror.
I try to keep my insanity, but it's 
to much to bare.
Maybe it would be easier
to end it all, no one wants 
a broken soul that needs to be
put together. 

Memories still haunt me
Life is not special 
or fun, happy or glad.
It's painful, regretful, horrible 
and I cant move past my painful past.
