The Wrong Fish
Destroy all evidence
That associates yourself,
Happiness,
And What Was.
Attempt to deeply bury memories,
Covering them with
Fresher, and different ideas
Of what defines life.
Avoid interaction or recognition,
Or try yourself with acts of civility.
Ignore the mixed feeling
Of lusting and loathing
That thrusts itself into your mind
When any memory of What Was is triggered.
Become temporarily bitter
About those who still live
The style of life that you have been refused.
That scenario of life is completed,
Be ready to begin it all again -
At any moment.
