My Miasma

Memories of you.
Swirling around my feet.
Like a thick blanket of fog
it threatens to engulf me.
It flicks at my nostrils,
wanting to be inhaled.
Brushing against my lips
Like an addiction, it beckons me.
Whispering promises, offering comfort.
A wise one once asked, “Will you choose to re-live
the memories, knowing the pain they will cause you?”
Closing my eyes and inhaling deeply,
I hear myself whisper…. “yes”
