No more

All those years

filled with hate

taking away my breath

 

All those times

I wondered about you

but you gave not a second thought to me

 

I will no longer

waste my thoughts on the past

nor will I pray for the future

I will just stay here

quite

smiling

at peace

no more hating

no more fear

no more excuses

 

it's time to be me

A tear welled in my eye.. the pain of yesterday, always has a way of stealing the hope from tomorrow.. allowing demons to hang around, only allows them to continue to influence you. I like your resolve, stand tall, stand strong.

Its hard to froget what someone has done to hurt you. Even harder to forgive and let go. This poem express it all well!

Thoughts of being in the now...or seeing things as they are...you have found the path of the present...to live life for thyself...first...

nice work...

your poem makes me want to bounce up and rejoice for you!!~ cathartic! poetic replete with self affirmation of being!~ bravo!~
