"Toxic Memories" (another short poem)

[Intoxicated Brutality]

I managed to title this one hahaha.

Just a fairly short piece I got the insipiration for today at school when I was thinking about things.


"Constantly have things haunting me,
Every thought another toxic memory,
Images from the past,
The way I thought it was a phase that wouldn't last,
All the things that happened between you and me,
How everything has come to be,
Now, if I could save a life with a memory,
I would've made you think of me,
Not of how I was back then,
But since, how I've been,
Tears falling down, feeling of folding in,
Thoughts tangled, don't know where they begin,
No idea if or when they'll finally end,
Just go through the motions, pretend,
Act like everything is okay,
Attempting to never show my dismay,
In the choice you made,
And the coffin in which you chose to lay."

I may build more onto this later, I haven't quite decided yet.
