Forgotten Trauma - Flesh Field

she flies

on rays of sunlight

yet she tries

to block the sky

for in the cold

and in the dark

it is easier to hide

and easier to brush aside

all of her guilt

what kind of scars

can twist our memories

in such a way that we believe

that all the suffering we have endured

is just all about to cease

the truth resides inside a place

and she has chosen to be brave

she has abandoned all her rage

and chose denial as a way

what kind of scars can twist our memories

in such a way that we believe

that all the suffering we have endured

is just all about to cease

what kind of misery can cloak the truth that we promised we would find

we never thought we would forget the past and render ourselves blind
