Time
•••

As time moves forward
I stand still
Remembering yesterday
Haunted in the past
Tears that never fell
Hands grabbed me
Pulling me out of despair

Step by step
Breath after breath
I closed my eyes
Allowing the river to overfill
Sweet whispers are heard
Telling me to move on
Telling me to keep going
But I shut down
Letting the nightmares to invade

The hand slapped me
The knife stabbed me
The words reminds me
I am now alone

Take me away
Your grip loosening
Tears falling silently
Haunted in the present
I don't want to remember
I fall down
As time moves forward
