I have not
Forgotten you wherever
You are or
Think you were
Once to me
You’re with me
Now swimming in
Memories lagoon tapping
My shoulder asking
Me for attention
A lifetime of
Ghosts not haunting
Like those seasons
Of long ago
That when now
It snows or
Fall winds cause
Leaves to dance
I see them
Yes I see
But remember you
Then and when
We were together
I stand bound
But not gagged
All alone now
Accepting my destiny
For that’s what
Brought me here
To the end
The charges read
A litany of
Crimes against them
My judgment passed
Fate finally sealed
Standing now here
Against this post
Awaiting the slurs
And the taunts
Then the arrows
Please I beg
Make your mark
And end this
End just one
More end in
A lifetime of
Ends that’s ended
All the others
If something has
The ability to
Change then it
Is living if
It doesn’t or
Worse chooses not
To it’s dying
Life simply put
You are only
Young once but
You’re old forever
We don’t live
In round rooms
But rather square
Or some type
Of some square
Full of corners
In which hide
Chagrin and monsters
Gobbling up memories
Munch munch munch
Until at night
Out they come
Giggling like faeries
Bathing your sleep
In blissful dreams
Ogres and imps
Are the same
In the corners
Of your room
