Inordinate memories
Cause a racing
akin to a heartache
Subdued thoughts
threatening to go burst
Rush forth
Overwhelmingly sly
recounted many a times
Erase, delete …unsafe
A shared secret…
Igniting imaginary tales for… monks
grisly Cloaked
Heart amending
needs no probing
Stirred yearnings
suppressed; in recess
devoid of access
A paralyzing battle deeply fought
A final closure though richly sought
Must not the lid to the abyss fraught
Lest the gains be lost in seeking the spoils
