a moment lasts a life time
as it echoes through the mind

flash backs are forever
keeping us confined

a sound, a shadow
a touch or smell

instantly transports you
back to that living hell

a memory from nowhere
tears upon the cheek

cursing at the lack of strength
at why you feel so weak

a moment lasts a life time
with a memory from hell

even when you know your safe
your reactions always tell
