Once an adult in
disguise,
her knowledge greater than her years.
Her grown-up points of view belied
her sickening inner fears.
Her courage was but terror
and her strength was but her pain.
She determined that no one would ever
hurt her bad again.
Now the woman has a longing
for the childhood she has missed.
She yearns to turn the clock back
prior to the haze and mist,
to when life was all a sniff of sun,
a petaled ball of light,
when she loved and lived at leisure,
and where love was liquid night.
But that all seems far away now,
all those years have since then passed,
Unable now to recollect
the scenes behind the mask.
Her memory protects her,
closes off her probing mind,
welding shut the doors of darkness hiding
nightmare truths behind.
Doesn't she know she’ll never not remember
if she finds the truth?
Doesn't she realize she’ll wish she had of
died within her youth?
‘Cause the pain that is unearthed is nigh
impossible to bear .....
and I know just how she feels,
‘cause I've been there.
her knowledge greater than her years.
Her grown-up points of view belied
