Also, a little while ago

There are so many memories
In my past that insist
To forever haunt my mind
With things that don’t exist

There are things in my past
I wish to forever forget
But still they replay over
In shadows they lurk and sit

Despite the happiness I feel
They refuse to go away
They continue to nag and pull
On my mind, everyday

I avoid sleep like the plague
For fear of the nightmares
That continue to play themselves
Yet, my eyes reflect the mirrors

I continue to be someone
That I only pretend to be
Yet somehow no matter what I do
That person is still me
