Amnesia

Her thoughts are troubled with the joys of her past.

Reaching for these flashes,

as they fade and never last.

Her heart thumps, like the knock of a drum.

Ready to rupture-free,

fragmented messes of crumbs.

Pulled away and stranded, yet familiar pieces.

Lost in the open with shredded creases.

Excruciating abdominal twists, into a knot.

Killing her softly, right now in this spot.

Forgetting, forgetting, slowly forgetting.

A trek of unpositioned pain,

coursing through her mind.

Annihilating her timeline,

there's none left to find.

Light mental capacity,

a recommencement of life at bay.

No hope but determination left,

anxious to attack the new privileged day.
