Whispering breeze on bending road
advises me turn and run.
Yet I shuffle toward the house
I fled when I was young.
Tears stain my silken threads,
fingers are cold and numb.
A man, my friend, beside me strolls.
His presence is helping some.
Never back the ghost wind moans.
How I long to turn and flee.
Still I continue to confront the past
that held such misery.
Trembling lips mumble lowly,
just once and I’ll be free.
Pounding heart knows it a lie
for my prison is memories.

Very deep, and with an interesting rhyme scheme. Often you convey the sence of a pause, as if you had inserted a comma, even though there is not actually one there. I often go ahead and use the punctuation. Anyway, good job =P. |

a chilling description of the difficulty one has coming to terms with a painful past. . . you portray a strong sense of both fear & self-control in the face of personal discomfort/distress. the concept that your memories hold you captive is very strong indeed. great job delivering these emotions. peace. elle |

This is very well written.
It's sad but awesome.
It reminds me of a scene in the movie FORREST GUMP.
Huggs, blessings, healing,
