The Traitor Within
@Uootem
such superficial existence haunted by shadows
from past sunlit moments regret of the losing
heavy upon his heart memory apparitions
masquerading as hope drifting... then abruptly
reason and sanity fails the acquittal of reality fragile soul... no freedom left prisoner of yearning
in a restless cell called his life tormenting images
of dreams once formed taunting vision of silhouettes so vulnerable to remembering. forever condemned
to grapple with emptiness she is his weakness as he reaches to grasp
want cannot be held he knows powerlessness
to alter destiny...
giving in to fate. unfulfilled aspirations from youth
the traitor within and the admission of truth
makes him afraid falling deeper into despair...
for he will miss her severely unless he can remember no more...
