All That I've Known

[RhymeLovingWriter]

There sounds a somber tone of bleakness...and yet, the sum of that darkness, trauma, and blindness produce moving poetry. Bravo to you Bry89

I lived for a thousand years
But it's not a story worth telling
I didn't live my life like the others

Even if I just tell one story
From the chronicles of many blank pages
The pen had broke before I did

All that I've known
Are the faded faces and the blurred pictures
So very few inbetween
It's as if they never seemed to exist

I may have held a million memories
But some have burned down some time ago
And I wasn't aware

Everything that would've assembled me
Has led to an imminent collapse
Of a life that never had the chance

All that I've known
Are the faded faces and the blurred pictures
So very few inbetween
It's as if they never seemed to exist

What am I to recall
Amidst the charred remains of a past
That I never had?
Nothing is there at all, nothing exists

The darkness
The trauma
The blindness
Are all that I've known
