A GHOST IN A SHADOW

A place between dreams of sentiments to quell fragments of silence pierce the living hell. Lost are those who know the cold and dark of time true substance of horror cruel emptiness to hide. Leave me sorrow now go calmly from despair slowly into daylight quiet without fear

The few peaceful moments when the head quiets, the only solace is time heals all wounds.... you don't forget.... it just seems a little less painful every time you forget not to remember. Unfortunately there is no magic wand so the best anyone can do is try to focus at the tiny light at the end of the tunnel and hope to reach it before the memories get to them. It's a very relatable write and so beautifully written too.
