Sorrow by Dechobek at deviantART
Her head
bowed
told more than words
could tell.
Her mother’s heart,
dragged down
the road
to hell.
More than once.
In reality
she feels relief.
Thus her shame
holds hands
o’er face of grief.
And she weeps.

Anew…
By setting you free
I liberate me
To begin anew
Surpass the few
Who realize
Don’t idealize
Existence on this plane
Grow from the pain
Learn to sustain
Faith
And hope
Ability to cope
An awareness, firm grasp
On the value
In this milieu
Of each soul
Not one
Will
Be lost
How is it that I thought I could
Outdo God, the creator?
Who fathered Jesus, yes, it’s true
But Satan, too, the traitor
What gave me the idea
I could raise a family
Foster pure perfection
Overcome man’s destiny?
I AM but a child of God
Divine-in-Training, really
To think I could avoid the pain
The failure, loss, was silly
Keep it in perspective
Realize the goal
Each of us returns to God
Each a valued soul
Despite it all…
I AM letting go
The time has come
Morning realization
This is done
I AM moving on
Though filled with love
Dawning here and now
Clear, from above
I AM placing faith
In you and yours
Capable of choice,
Successes, more
I AM opening fists
And opening heart
Letting what comes next
Lessons impart
I AM freeing you
And freeing me
To live and learn and love, now
Judgment free
I AM shunning fear
To let love bind
Illuminate my soul
Heart, psyche, mind
And now
I stand my ground
I’ll not be abused
Refuse to be used
When cheated, short-fused
Way past the blues
Thus I implore you … Do not be confused
This line
In this sand
This time
~ Is final ~
