Memories

The Hippocampus hides,
deep
within its cave.
Curled up in its cavity
protected from depravity.
A creature silenced,
stuck in time,
it sleeps amongst the sin and slime
until one day it's woken.
Loosening the bonds of ages
in fear, it roars,
in pain, it rages;
"Your promises are broken,
your threats won't hold,
they will be told; hang not
your horrors here unspoken.
Pass through these walls
leave me in peace.
I am innocent and true.
My spirit hears, a new life calls;
a life devoid of dangers
such as you"
