Selfish Memories Haunt My Existance.

by ABake   Jul 29, 2007


All the times I hurt you, every time I let you down.
Are now a selfish memory haunting my existence.
In the pain from these memories, I'm starting to drown.

Trying to suppress the thought of you from my mind.
But I keep thinking about all the things we didn't do,
It's hard to live like this, a reason to be is harder to find.

Wish I wasn't so selfish, thought about you, not only me.
Maybe if I wouldn't have always declined the invitation.
I would be less miserable, a little more happy.

These selfish memories, they haunt me every night.
Why did I have to do that to you?
Now I live with a feeling of regret, a continuous fright.

My existence, I am starting to question.
I am afraid, the pain will soon over power my life
I don't even sleep anymore, I think I failed to mention.

For a title contest =]

    wow... amazing poem!! I don't know if this is based on your life, but if it is, know that people make mistakes in life. We're all human and sometimes, our impulse takes over and overruns our judgement and moral values. But, "forgiveness is a virtue"... and in time, people often do learn to forgive the person they love.

    Take care and good luck with the contest =]
