Here lies my Past. Time to let go.

Sadness it grips
Sadness it holds so tight
A stab of pain rushes in
Engulfing my heart
Till it cannot breathe

Unable to hold back
What seemed like eternity
For the tears to swell
Just behind my thoughts
I try to let it subside

I hold on
Not wanting to remember
Not wanting to repeat
Trapped in white walls
While the outside is black

Which is true?
Which is lie?
I cannot fathom anymore
To believe my eyes
Or to believe my heart?

It starts again
All over
Images flash like wind
Hands pulling me in
Screaming to be released

Kill the pain!
Avenge the sorrow!
I hear the words
Clear and loud
Pinning my mind to it

My body proceeds to rebel
Joints and organs revolt
As my hand shakes
My mouth stutter
My eyes closed

Oh the pain in my chest
The piercing in my throat
Muscles ache as the dam floods
The ecstasy to just release
Could not be any easier

But to see the memories
Of old and new
Before me my reason
To destroy everything
To annihilate what existed

The denial that was created
Evolving in a ball of flashy light
So far yet so near
Decided by a thin line
To forget or to forgive

Once again the memories
Happiness was just yesterday
Today it plays like vinyl
Classical and romantic
The awed child-like innocence

Shattered!
By the cursed ice of betrayal
Unable to accept the answer
Not even an Angel can save
The soul that had fallen now

It dawned
Back into flesh
The truth of pain
Is the fact that love
Caused hate

How can it be?
What have I done?
Why?
How is it so?
The questions run

Spears stabbing my limbs
Arrows slicing my skin
Swords eating my heart
Whips burning my mind
But only one soul commanding the fleet

The war in which I cannot win
For how can a noble knight
Defeat another who had a witch disquised
With the intention to poison happiness
At the extent of another


This one soul hurt me
More than sticks and stones
An invisible knife
Piercing through my heart
I can bear it no longer!

Without hesitation

The clear crystals forming
Beautiful in its own right
Yes!
I am free!

Flowing
The mind becomes clear
Numb from within
The body quivers
The soul empty

The water falls to the ground
Cleansing the face as it glides
Clear skies of white
Yet grey in flashes
Stars seem to fall on me

Beautiful
Gentle touches of heaven
Dancing on my face
What is this?
Am I alive?

Yes
Back in renewed reality
As the rain drums on my skin
Noise of a millions horse hooves
Yet silence as I walk home

This is the tears
Of a wounded soul
Even Angels cried with me
And Heaven opened up its gate of compassion
To comfort me

Yet it would take
A whole history of humankind
To heal
The venomous puncture
In my heart and mind and soul

At least what would be left
Is a scar to erase what was
And to be reminded forever
The cause of the wound
In the first place

I close my eyes
As I let the tears recede
Slowly taking up courage
Letting the peace seep through
Allowing my mind to rest

My heart beat once more
Life flows of a raging river
Wondering of flowers
Blooming by the sides
Of my heart

Paying respect
To the dead
Buried in stone
A name written on it
The Past
