Careful now as you step inside
The war zone that is my mind
Avoid the craters and the pits
And the shrapnel lodged within.
Embedded deep where none can see
The casualties remain
Apply a tourniquet stop the bleeding.
A healing hand beckons
But I can’t, or do I fear revealing
The cause behind the scenes of these weaponized memories.
can I truly be free?
the choice remains with me.
