the flashbacks

the trauma never leaves me,
there will always be certain smells, tastes, places, noises and objects that will take me back to the times my trauma occurred,
everyone says "you have to move on" but I can't,
I can't forget it or move on, It stays with me like a tattoo.

I always think what if I could go to certain places without remembering the events?
What if I could smell that scent without remembering them?
What if I could live freely?
but I can't,
I'm trapped and I can't get away.
