LETTING GO

My memories of your
Sin against me
Hurts more then death.
Your actions robbed
Me of my life.

I want to forget,
I want to forgive you,
Honestly I do.
But my pain and anger
Stand in the way.

I am hanging on to memories
That keeps pulling me down.
Drowning my existence, my being.
But still I can’t let go.

How long does it take?
To heal a scar that’s deep?
Does it take years or a lifetime?
How long is time?
I can’t wait
I must go on.
