Shadows
Shadows
Written: by Tom Wright

Ghosts of previous years defy escape,
Emotionally swaddled in a bullet proof vest
I sit in the corner of my mind as if abducted.
In this abbreviated state I wander twixt reality,
And dreams of my subconscious;
While roaming through shadows of past times
I’m plagued by things, unworthy of remembering,
And disarray dominates my innermost thoughts.
Within this dream I confront empty faces,
And unattached voices, whispering, remember me?
All faces of a past previously forgotten.
