Sometimes I find myself there.
Unsure of how or why.
A memory, voices from the past.
The back roads of my mind.
Winding, dark and treacherous.
A wrong turn.
One misstep.
A fatal flaw in the grand design.
Paved with broken stones and shards of glass.
Soaked with tears and pain.
Unnecessary truths, drowning in lies.
A recollection of mindless introspection.
A flashback to things long since passed.
Suppressed recollections of long-lost affections.
Things remembered rather forgotten.
Moments of light and happiness far and in between.
Nostalgia spreading lies of fond grandeur.
I no longer desire to return in thought to things I’d rather forget.
