Blood Hounds

by Confined   Mar 31, 2009


Im constantly reminded
of all my wrongs
and none of my rights

baying blood hounds of my past
wont let me go
i dont want to be left alone with them
if all i hear is the same cries
a moments silence is all i would need
i dont want to remember anymore
if all it brings is a guilty consience

and if i cant escape these things
how else am i supposed to move on
if its one thing after another thats holding me back
cause im blind to the future
and blind to myself
if its only pain i feel
what am i to do?

    Your title caught my attention, and the words kept me reading. I don't like the flow in this write, though the first poem was wonderful and painfully true.

    "Im constantly reminded
    of all my wrongs
    and none of my rights"

    I like your use of Blood Hounds to speak of your wrongs, and your guilt being it's ferocious bite. Well done.
