The Memory (poem)

My emotions are raging thoughts
Some bitter, some sweet
Sometimes I wish the wind would carry me
And maybe I’ll be able to enjoy life again
Like the child I once was
A life of the innocent
No war games
Just picture perfect memories to carry
Take me now oh Lord, I swear
Sometimes it’s a burden
These thoughts of mine
They watch me hauntingly
Finding me to talk to
