Corroded
feelings often turn into nightmares. Laced with blood and terror,
Wisps
of my memories that all lead back to you remind me
Of
my better days. Since you have been taken into the
Afterlife
I have been all alone, surrounded by
darkness. Not moving,
Still
but barely breathing. Your voice speaks to me at night, calming me, but can
Haunt
the dreams I once relied on to bring me to you again, but instead remind
Me
why you left.

This piece was inspired by what I have been reading from Ellen Hopkins' Smoke. It reminds me of a time I felt like I was surrounded by nothing but dark days and sadness.
