Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.<br /> Maya Angelou

Here I am melancholy, consumed by remorse
Memories of my past mistakes haunting me
As I feel the gentle breeze of Spring
Untroubled by the concrete, looking at the cloudless sky
Cogitating why life must come with such predicaments
I suddenly began to reminisce
The ghastly feeling of the frigidity flooding through me
Flashbacks of my mistakes, making me relive the unbearable sorrow
One by one, the feeling was just too much
Could this be real?
Darkness surrounding me with every turn
Am I still suffering the consequences of those mistakes?
……..And there it was again…… that ghastly feeling.
