You promised to stay forever,
But that promise you broke!
You sucked the life from me
before You left!
But thank goodness you didn't know
I was light and from me life is given!
Hate me or love me
You are long gone now!
You left me,
And now you are dead to me!
We were children and
We had our love to share!
Now you are gone,
I would write you a tribute,
I would tell the congregation of your tale!
I would share our story,
I would write you a song!
I would read the glorified joy you brought me to them,
I would praise your soul before your folks!
But I'll hide the hurt and pain caused,
I know you fear I might wine and dine to your death but
I still have my humanity in check, so I will mourn you!
I would speak good of you and
I would exalt your life with you,
I would tell them that I wasn't your princess but you were my prince!
I won't throw dirt on your name, I promise and I won't even curse your existence,you have my word!
No?
No, because when I heard of your death,
My heart was lifted of the curse of hating you!
No,
No, because now I know different and
Now my heart understands the type of life you led.
I can only hope you find peace
And the demons you possessed alive, don't feed up on your soul now that you are gone!
I hope you found the joy you sort for
And your pains,
The one caused by the lover,the one before me,
The pains you never healed from,
I hope they leave you and they leave whole!
I forgive you
And I pray for your repose
I pray the heavens forgive you
I forgive you,
I'll give love to my body,
I'll give hope to my spirit and
I'll teach my soul to trust again!
I forgive you,
I do it for my sanity,
I do it for my peace of mind,
And do it for my future!
With the passing of time,
I got smarter and stronger,
With the pace in time,
I got bolder and grew to loving karma!
And for the markings I now live with,
The tattoo of your name on my skin
And the teeth bites my skin now wears as its clothing
The marks from your beating
Hope you know now, that bandages can't heal wounds?
And the holes you dented to the designated parts of my body,
I hope to one day forget!
Cheers,
To the ceremonies
We attended as a couple
To the sequel of activities
We shared with experiences I swore never to forget
It's hard to forget the good times and the times you said sorry just for the show,
I would write it all down and share them with the world!
I would tell your friends the truths you told only me,
I would type them out so they could be read!
Your friends and I would have beers for each,
While we talk about you
We will talk about the impacts you left us with,
And in this moment all the truth and lies you've ever hidden would face up!
We would talk about your winning and losses,
We would speak of how you use to be the master of your own sea,
We would let the pain of losing you rain down,
We would, in that moment, drown in our own tears
But
There on after,you would become nothing else
but just a simple memory soon to be forgotten..
With much love from
The heart that loved you!
