He was looking...searching...for the answer.

Left hollow and fragmented

He couldn’t remember his past memories or anything for that matter

All he could remember was feeling a pulsating sensation inside his head.

His thoughts and his memories

all vanished into the mist.

Darkness clouded his mind on events prior to the injury

yet left with his name

he made himself a new.

He created a new identity

a fresh start.

He excelled in most of his classes

some not so much.

He even met a girl

she was cute.

Very beautiful and kind hearted.

She adored by everyone in all her classes.

She was popular and active in most clubs.

Yet she saw something in him that caught her eye.

He wasn’t like the rest.

Sensitive, kind, and sweet,

he was everything that she wanted.

But beyond the glass,

another watched as her ex and soon to be her husband

she watches as another takes her only love away.

She cries everyday about what had happened

but there’s no changing the past so she moves on

and he marries the new girl in his life

and like that

everything in the past

all my emotions thoughts and feelings float away into the flowing clouds

like a child with wings

it soars into the sky with a grace and elegance that resembles a drifting memory

fading into the back, lost and forgotten

collecting dust and the cracks grow and rot
and I leave, vanishing with the memories
