Sirens
November 28, 2016
Thoughts of you are inescapable.
The scars you've left beneath my skin have healed,
Yet your memory chases me ceaselessly.
Traces of your growling voice echo in every room.
Your laugh accompanies my helpless tears,
A vicious monster behind hidden forced smiles.
Your claws no longer grip at my sanity,
But your hold remains stronger than ever.
Why do you still pull at my heart?
I've tried everything to forget what you've done.
I want you out of my life.
But every step away is one more in your direction.
