Relic (Memento)
by Ramon Contrera

Epidermis, surface over powered and compound to form lines,
Experiences of past stampede through this head of mine,
It travels down my spine and it is excelled to the rest of my living carcass,
Which out of three only carries two,
I thank God, for these being the sharpest,
I bet you with I would agree too.

I'm conquer when I concern to no longer live,
Life, give to receive,
Time has come.
I know this because of my own
shadow I have grown frantic,
Summoned17 years ago, now my job is done,
Now its time for me to head to the sky or to the depth of the Atlantic.

Hours best enemies,
These scars great truthful memories,
Past Love are gathered here in my store,
Known, I've lost my heart,
All the pain I have endure,
And all the time it fell apart.
