Old Memories
I see the scenes vivid in my head
Old memories I always dread
Push them back swallow them down
Not wanting to show another frown
When they surface I mustn't blink
I don't even want to think
The hurt still somewhere in my heart
Though years ago we did part
I never wonder why you appear
Only that it became quite clear
My greatest love the pain you brought
But also many lessons were taught
Healing was my biggest fear
Lots of beer and many a tear
Would I survive the pain
How to keep sane
One day it finally hit me
To the Universe I did plea
Help walked through my door
I wasn't alone anymore
There are times when I look back
Just to keep me on a positive track
Old memories are like a ghost
Some days they want to play host
