Murky Memories

ICY

With Big Little Lies

To tie us together

Under the weather

With you outside, so we could survive.

Your trips inside

I know you tried

to easy my pain while I walked alone in the rain.

I hope all we suffered results in some gain.

My journey too long

Trying to forget all the wrongs

Of the past

That perpetually crept through to my present view.

I was trying to talk to you

but others peeked in

They took my words

Made them twist and bend to some altered end.

My messages got lost – Multiple lifetimes the cost.

Only murky memories left of things we may have done – glory, joy, and fun when love is one.

Even the things just me, I can’t achieve

Those vision are scattered, the memories tattered

and torn between my lifetimes.

Now I am worn


I stretched way too far.
