BOUND MEMORIES
"Bound Memories"
In this vast universe, our souls intertwined,
I question the meeting that led to this bind,
Love once bloomed, now lost, but was it real?
Yes, it lived in me, a love I still feel.
Where did it go? Somewhere in the sky,
The galaxy gleams with that love, so high.
I try to regain it, but all I receive,
Is pain and hurt, not what I believe.
The universe confuses, refuses to give,
Love replaced by sorrow, making it hard to live.
Who's to blame for this relentless game?
Not him, nor me, so I call your name.
Stop bringing back his memories so clear,
They haunt and hurt, filling me with fear.
I'm tired of this cycle, worn and drained,
If it's not meant for me, let it be restrained.
Keep his memories hidden, out of sight,
He was part of me, though not quite right.
His soul lingers, urging me to embrace,
A love forbidden, a warm, tearful trace.
It's his soul in mine, pouring its pain,
Begging me to hold him again and again.
Against all rules, it tugs at my heart,
A tale of love's echo, torn apart.
