Head Games
In my life I bear a burden that those around me do not see,
accumulated memories have become my enemy.
They were gathered from my early days when I was just a lad,
I cherished them for many years but now they make me sad.
My early life was an adventure filled with more than I can say,
I now bear the cost of living it, it’s been far too much to pay.
This heart’s so full of memories, I scarce can bear the weight
So what I loved in the beginning, has now given way to hate.
The life I am now living is viewed through lenses of my past
The very essence of my being, in an instant had been cast.
I wish the memories could be written, then removed from this old head,
Allowing me to gather more new memories in their stead.
