Memories Flowing

Memories flowing

Fighting struggling losing

Battles of the body

Battles of the mind

Wondering will this ever end

Flashes brief flashes long

Some clear some dazed

Fire burning on the alter

Animal caught

Throat slit

Heart cut out

Divided among us

Offerings given

Offerings taken

No tears allowed to be shed

Too weak

Need to stay strong

Reeling into their grasp

Hope strangled

Fear embraced

Helplessness wanted
