| "I've finally found peace"
Last night as I lay in my lover's arms, I finally felt free to dance among the stars. I wept for joy at my refound freedom; then I wept for sadness at my sorrowful realization That I'd been grounded for months...and months...and months Bound by none but myself- me and my memories. But this night I found the key, the one which could set me free, And I'll no longer be a bitter bride to tragedy. ~~~ I remember once I held a one For precious minutes few, Tightly as I possibly could. He said it was as if I were afraid to let him go. I told him one day I would have to, And he reassured me that it needn't be so. But I knew I spoke only Truth. And I must remember now- that is my Truth, And I have to let him go. Let go of love and of hate, Let go of pain and anger and hurt, Let go cold memories which haunt me from the grave. This isn't something to be gotten over. It's just a thing I must learn to let go. ~~~ I saw in the sand a name drawn within a broken heart, And all this night, I watched the tide wash it away. So good morning beautiful, To my bright new and clear view, My brand new day. |
