Give memories the Sack!!
Sitting at the airport, awaiting our flight,
I saw his double, it gave me a fright!
Sat there nearby, looking like sin,
I sat determined, Not to give in.
Froze to the spot, tears falling free,
Why was this happening, here now to me?
Couldn't stop looking, couldn't move away,
I wish it hadn't happened, there yesterday!
I was meant to be there, helping my friend,
Instead it was me, being driven round the bend.
Reminded me clearly of things in the past,
I sat there wondering, how long will it last?
Shaking like jelly, from my head to my toes,
Until my friend told me, it's best if we go.
For the rest of the day Memories clear,
I was right back there, I wasn't here!
I had been triggered, worse than ever before,
Didn't want it to happen, that's for sure.
But I can't stop the world, doing it's thing,
Once in a while, I'll no longer sing.
I will work through this, find my way back,
Just wishing I could give my memories the sack!
