Lost in the Past

by Adelina Darllen   Oct 7, 2020


A late-night, unable to sleep
Because of the memories that come
Unbidden in my dreams
Seeking for the truth that
Everyone ignores

From dusk until dawn
Rereading the notes
Of what happened those
Many years ago

Maybe I'm crazy and made it all up
You may want to believe that

Getting lost in the past
Running for my life
And the realization strikes I may
Never be truly safe
Don't you let your guard down
For the demons are
Awaiting so that they can
Take you far away from
Home and all you hold dear
Everyone is blind until its too late
Recede into yourself
