Unwanted Memories
As my head hits my pillow
and I try to sleep
My mind starts to dwell Unwanted memories of you
on past secrets I keep Haunt my days and night times too
Of the hurt and the pain The hurt and the pain from my past
through all of my years Will be with me 'till I breathe my last
And my eyes start to cry
my own salty tears Now I'm living my life
always haunted by you
Though I really do try You invade my day times
not to dwell on my past whatever I do
Deep in my mind thoughts I need to find out
come back thick and fast the best way for me
And whatever I do To keep unwanted memories
to distract my brain under lock and key
Still those unwanted memories
are with me again Though I'm living my life
I feel it passing by
Unwanted memories of you Endlessly fighting
Haunt my days and my and wondering why
night times too I feel bound by your chains
The hurt and the pain from my past always drawing me back
Will be with me 'till I breathe my last Always wary and frightened
of your next attack
As my eyes close to try
to stop thoughts getting through My confidence left lme so long ago
I then get assaulted The pain thatI feel
by pictures of you it’s always on show
And try as I might My life’s but a shell of
you will not go away what it should be
I'm worn out from fighting Release your chains,
this day after day Set my life free
When I finally give in Unwanted memories of you
and fall off to sleep Haunt my days and night times too
At the point where the sleeping The hurt and the pain from my past
begins to get deep Will be with me 'till I breathe my last
So the terrors begin
and I relive again Jane Shields (C)
All the hurt and the fear
mingled in pain
