Lost in Time

**The picture is mine stylized by Google Pictures**

I sidle through the silent halls of my memories

head down

teeth bared

afraid of what I might find.

Memories that have been closeted from me

the good

the bad

and everything in between.

As time has passed within this dream

I awaken

and find

that the bad have slowly disappeared.

I can see sunshine and light

I can remember things I long forgot

I cry as the good times spill over me.

For too long

darkness has held court over my memories.
