Memories Unfold

You stand there all alone
Seems as if no one cares
Seeing the world all around
Eyes were once bright 
But now they fade 
Living in the past
These memories unfold
Remembering what you were told
How it created desires for the future
A tomorrow that you would not have
These thoughts that helped you survive
Now they send shivers down your spine
You Try to escape what's in you head
Continue to run from what's in your mind
But these memories, they will never die
