Reminiscence

I hesitate in the doorway
Of reality and the nightmares
that haunt my mind.
Skin, eyes, everything
Blowing around my head
Flakes of glass
Falling from the hole in the sky
Pouring on me, I feel them,
their hate.
Coming from the one that used to send me snow.
Calling out the name
Feeling out the touch of
The love of someone new.
The burning and tearing of smile upon smile.
Of laugh upon laugh
All the things that come
When you know things are
How they were always meant to be.
But it all ended,
And now this is the new future,
The new destiny
Two people, once in the deepest of love
Strangers to each other.
But I never want to forget
Or be forgotten
Though I'm afraid it's already happening
And forgetting,
That's the one thing that hurts more than remembering.
