rewind

haunt and twisting
these memories weep...bleeding
into a sentiment beyond visions
rewound and hung out to fly

that moment...it won't release me
ever...the thought
sweeps over and denies
all evidence of the here and why

it mires me, down
...into it's shock
and miserly atonement
won't unleash for this path
to disgorge a truth
almost hidden by fugue

what triggers this lapse?
this light shining unsought
in a maddened bid
to focus the eye
on an inner loss and frenzy?

why echo this cry
when all thought is stranded and astray
the dare of fates since belated?
and why taunt anew
each passing revived
when forgiveness is courted...
yet shaky?

but for my eternal...it troubles
drags hold and dives...grieving
ever...and always
to the 'heart' of my sorrow
