Bad Memories

Bad Memories

Light shines through cracks
Another daily torture here
Unwelcome, disturbing
Knowing I will be taken
down memory lane
Thoughts are perturbing 

Some too painful to face
Wishing I was not awake
My heart has become sore
I close my eyes to madness
praying for darkness
to consume me once more

    This is really sad! I’ve a friend going through a crisis of anxiety right now, getting meds — which she fears, too — and I think she has times when she feels just like this. I’m glad to hear it’s not where you’re at now.
    However, thanks for participating in the prompt.

      Thank you for reading. I’m sorry about your friend. I hope she finds her way out of her pain very soon. 😢

      Yes thanks so much for reading. Sometimes I don’t know where my thoughts come from! 🙂

    Oh, Christine. This is exceptional. Painful once again, but..

      Thank you G. I don’t where those words came from today as I’m in a really happy mood 🙂

        Thank you. Yes I should sometimes preface my poetry and state that it isn’t always representative of my feelings! I like to write for everyone so they know they are not alone in their sorrow ❤️
