Every feeling every thought
I poured all out
Rolled them up
Quilled into a roll
So tight
Grabbed a bottle
Slipped them inside
Stopped the top up
Cork inside
Ran seaside
Tossed it at the tide
So I‘d never
Have to think
Yet one day
The glass will break
My thoughts returning
Instantly screaming
Over sand and land
And sea they streak
Once they enter into me
I’ll be freed from
Shackles binding me

Regaining lost or repressed memories is a painful disturbing process. The brain represses them for a reason after all. The rewards, of repairing a fractured life are worth it, to me at least.

CH 20~ Party Down
Argento’s ninth (eighteenth in earth years) Birthday came and went Thursday, the thirteenth, and he’d already received his father’s gift, if you could call it that. You had to commit a fairly serious infraction to be cut off; the Arch-Baron was keeping up appearances and maintaining his own reputation as much as any sense of love or attachment to Argento with his “gift.”
