The Wall of Memories

staring into the abyss, i heard some voices gentle
so i wandered into the forest, to follow those voices
followed the stairs that led
                                          deeper
                                                     and 
                                                           deeper

but my investigation brought me to a halt
the voices turned into screams and screams into howls
and suddenly the dark clouds obscured my eyes

saw a mammoth wall painted  in murals
in red, with memories and faces of people
a sudden pour of rain brought them to life
and they began to chase me to tear me
                                                               piece
                                                                        by
                                                                             piece

in the disbelief i closed my eyes
to make sense of what i had just seen
the light was ahead but far from the reach
suddenly all echoes disappeared in the haze

stuck in a maze,
a cycle of repetitive events
wish it was just a flicker
but this feeling is chained around my neck



About this Poem
Written on- December 21, 2024; 10:02 am
This poem is based on one visual i once saw in my head and i tried to put that scene into words to explain how it looks like being haunted by memories who are long gone from your life. This is me visualizing my that image in form of words.
