SECRETS OF THE PAST
The rain outside usually comforts me, but tonight it gives me chills.
Those cold lonely raindrops soaking into the ground and running down the hills.
Before, I would sit watching and remembering things that used to be,
but now I pray to forget those terrifying memories that haunt me.
I try to think of happy times, so I can forget at last,
but as soon as I relax,
in come the dark secrets of the past.
I wake up screaming and crying because they tease me when I sleep.
I wish they would have stayed where they were, in my mind, buried deep.
I can see nasty hurtful pictures before my eyes,
I can hear terrible helpless screams that turn out to by MY cries.
How do I make them go away so I can finally have some peace of mind?
Don't ever dig too deep, you may not like the things you find.
