i wonder if details matter, <br />it happened so long ago, <br />is it really important? <br />do i really need to know, <br />who and why? <br />you a shadow from the past, <br />but you haunt my mind, <br />just knowing part of what you did, <br />makes me wonder why i trusted you, <br />i begged not to see you, <br />but my begging wasn't strong enough, <br />not without a reason why, <br />so i continue to be abused, <br />i was scared of you, <br />is that the reason you remain, <br />being a shadow in my thoughts? <br />i blocked you out, <br />just like the pain, <br />no longer have a face, <br />but yet you remain a mystery, <br />in my past, <br />i'm starting to think, <br />it should be where you stay, <br />no need to open a can of worms, <br />that don't need to be open, <br />for me to understand the whole story.<br /><br />mona martinez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-shadow-from-my-past/
