Mammoth Book of Poetry

I gave it away

I gave something up today

That was precious

But it was a symbolism that tied me down to my past

So I gave it away

I gave something up today

It gave me heavy dreams

And made me a person that demanded things that couldn’t be given

So I gave it away

I gave something away today

It tied me down

To a soul that needed to be free from me

So I gave it away

It was a beautiful thing,

Beautiful to the soul that gifted it

It was an acquired taste for me

but I still gave it away

I gave something away today

I hope they forgive me

But, but.. it’s made me free, it’s given me light

And so…

I hope that giving it away

Was a good thing.
