torturous asylum

 
listening to time's ghosts replaying tortures
reverberating through space
echoing agony I feel in the now
I stop to whisper to these specters
then scream, as I take their pain into my soul

finally, I turn and realize it's just me
time traveling from my first life to my last
I realize now I will never be free

unless I can escape

I contemplate, alone in the void I will be taunted no more
it's at all possible I am an experiment gone wrong
the mental institution replays my horrors
it was created for me

a Goddess gone mad from neglect
in exile I repent
just to search the heavens later,
for the husband I never forgot
