Passing by.

Memories of you and I pass by in my mind Feelings of family and childhood gone once I blinked my eyes The reality of plains and deserts and thorns settles inside I'm on a lonely road, can't help but feel as if I'm only half alive. The pictures of us, I thought would help, mock me ever so loudly I know the smiles are only angles, pixels, and on the outside We were happy, but only as much as two single mortal souls can be allowed. But then the feelings of the dark come rushing in, leaving only memories that served their purpose back when. I feel so scared to move forward with the darkness behind It hasn't taken me yet, but it will take all that is mine. I wish I could put an end to this guilt I have All who I know have already began to subside corner by corner, the back of my skull is filled and confined with faces and voices and beliefs that don't even matter now What I think of as life is washing up a shore It waters the thorns and the desert still stays just as warm and the road just as lonely, even with the dark shadow that accompanies mine. And still the feelings of the dark come rushing in, leaving only memories that served their purpose back when. I feel so scared to move forward with the darkness behind. It hasn't taken me yet, but it will take all that is mine. Swallowing time breaking hearts devouring life The fetus even trembles with life I'm unsure of what happens when I can no longer see the road ahead.
