Release

Release


Finally, I find the strength
To pick up the baggage 
I have kept for so long
It is now tied up 
neatly in a bundle
Hanging on to it was wrong
 
Purging myself of your memory
Into the garbage it goes
without another thought
Cleansing to my soul
and brushing away cobwebs
What we had came to naught
 
In this final release
I forgive you
for all the pain you inflicted
I move on to my future
wishing you well
I know now I was addicted

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

  2. Thank you Gina. I think many of us can relate to this situation. You just have to let go sometimes in order to move on. 💕
