My past





She knew her
  spirit was at stake.
She laughed all day
  and cried all night.

Sometimes she would scream his name
        at the sun
      and sometimes whimper to the moon.

  I feared she was too dismantled
  to be rejoined
  but
I recovered
  in some disdain
  the thought
that she was me once again
  and you never knew.

    I trembled
      like shutters
        of broken window
still loving you
  and your name
  your song
all ever do
  is create a cyclone
  that has no way
no reason
to end.

    What beautiful metaphor and strength in your words...past memories can be so hard and can drag us so low...yet you have found a means to an end in hope to come...well done...
    Best to you!

    So metaphorically deep and grasping. With vivid imagery and feeling therein... x Lots of love, Lavender Butterfly.

    This is a powerful recollection of a past someone in your life. So sad yet there is hope in your words. You might want to check the line 'all ever do' think it needs an 'I' Love, C
