Poetry: Memories you can't escape

by Yamilka Cirino

Created on: October 06, 2009

These are the memories that I cannot forget.

The touch of your fingers, exploring every inch of my skin, staining it to the color of the blackness.

Closing my eyes to block out these images, these memories that have been locked away for some time. They have not been forgotten, they have only been lost over the years.

Seeing your face, was like staring at the Devil, my eyes locked onto yours, my body frozen in time.

My heart stopped beating for the minute that felt like an eternity. There is no forgetting that night.

That dark cold night, in which no one was there to help me.

That night, in which I had lost all security within my soul.

Here I stand, with these unforgotten memories, while tears stain my skin; trailing behind an emptiness of my soul.

These memories I wish to forget.
