Fire Inside

by Ravenking - Aries

Why do memories burn the
Mind like a visable flame?
No thought on good fate because
The presence of sorrow grips
And squeezes memories (unwanted)
Out of their deep hiding places
Where they were put and
Locked away.
Not to be retrieved until
The thinker crossed the 
Bearing paths of the ill-faithful
Place in which they were created.
It is like setting a match to
The head and watching it burn.
Tears soon start to form, and
Fall like rain drops upon the
Skin.
Some can't be cherished because they
Are just too painful to the
Head, they are not friends
With it because it caste them
Out like enemies.
But one can't help but lighting
The fire every now and again
And letting those painful memories
Run free.
Only to be captured and put back
In place again.

Reason for writing:

    Undying memories that haunt my timid soul
