I'll be back



Thoughts swirling in my head
Trying to find a way
Can't remember what you said
I want to everyday

Take me back to my past
Because I got ripped away
It all went by so fast
I don't know what to say

Can't remember who I was
All my memories erased
I'm only trapped here because
Of all the things I've faced

I feel as though im living there
Still walking through those halls
Still running around in my yard
Not having a care at all

My mind is there
My body forced here
I still remember every room
I left my heart and all my tears
But i'll be back very soon

About this poem
