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.
