Please let me go
I've spent much of my life telling myself it didn't happen.
I closed my eyes and turned my head before for a time that was needed, and for a time that was easier.
At some point I had to take a good look at the woods behind me.
It hurt more then ever before, it shattered my glass into pieces.
But I'm working on picking up all the bits of glass left behind.
I don't want an apology, I don't need to hear how sorry you are, I just want you to admit you did it, to let go of your perfect image.
Little Elliot
I wish I could go back in time and give little Elliot a hug.
I wish I could speak to that scared child and tell him everything will be okay.
Give him a hug and tell him it won't last forever, because he was so scared, so sad, and so hurt.
If I could go anywhere I'd go back far enough to say "he won't always be able to hurt you."
Gold
Oftentimes I feel as if I'm a bowl,that's been shattered.
One who was supposed to love me took that kindness and trust, and soon smashed it to pieces.
But I must remind myself of the broken glass that can be fixed with gold.
Pen and paper
As of late I've been lacking inspiration for my writing,
The love is there, the passion is always present, but something was missing.
That was until I once again went back to the basics of pen and paper,
The words flowed like that hadn't in so long.
