Old Scars Still Hurting

Dread to fear, like time should stop.
But time defies us, does not
even falter.
The screaming comes, foot pushes to accelerate,
Everything falls away, light and sound
gone.
Wanting to give way, listening to sobs,
As my stronghold fortress breaks, falls
to the ground.
Comfort with an embrace, hold to fast,
Obscurity comes and goes. Hiding hurt
from who you can.
Eyes red with tears, as darkness comes,
And a heart hurting more with
lack of care.
Trying not, but wanting, to share the
Memories hidden deep in your past.
