Memories

by nobody truly knows me   Dec 17, 2005


These memories haunt me
Each day and each night
Memories that are like shadows
Blocking out the sweet light
These memories of pain
Seem like all I can remember
They hide other memories
Of good times and laughter
Where are my good dreams?
They're replaced by nightmares
What is true joy?
I simply can't remember
But nobody knows this
For I do the same thing each day
I plaster a smile on my face
All my pain hidden away
All the while I remember
The pain, the sorrow
These memories playing in my mind
Today and tomorrow
I cannot escape this
It'll always be this way
Reliving the pain
Each and every day
