Analysis of When Memories Hurt
The memories bring the pain
And tears
I try hard
Not to recall
But that, come
As destructive forces
Beyond my power
That, destroy
My feelings of joy
And pleasure
I build in weeks long
Suddenly,
The bitter and sad
Memories attack
To harm and hurt me
I stay
Within such spot
Deletion and resumption.
