Amnesia of the Soul

Troubled waters, murky seas

A fjord of memories
Sunburned grasses and hills
The pleasant hue of sunshine
Hidden by gathering clouds
The sun's shadowy glance
Proclaims the coming rains
I sit transfixed
My life speeding like a hurricane
Twists and turns
A howling vortex of memories
I want to forget
I need to forget
Regrets rush in a rage of fury
The hunter is now haunted
By the screams of his former prey.
