Description
Never will I forget,
pain, searing through me,
engulfing me with relentless flames.

Burning every ounce of life from my pores
and ripping away the sanity
that I fought so hard to hold to.

Never will I forget drowning in a hopeless world
in which I have always been alone.
The emptiness that ached night after night.

Nothing could satisfy the hunger for love or just,
Someone else. Something else. Begging for a change,
Begging for happiness. Which, at the time, was nothing but fiction.

Never will I forget the times that it felt as if nothing mattered.
Unsatisfied with life, but afraid of death.
When it felt like all humans were selfish and kindness was a myth.

I wish...I could rip a hole in my heart, in my memories,
so I could reveal the brokenness, the nothingness,
that became who I was.

I wish to never return to it.
But I will never forget it.
And I will work everyday to prevent it.
