Scared is the breath
brave enough to live
Emptiness fills my
lungs
The embrace of doubt
constricts me
A line drawn...
Pure darkness
Shades darker than dark
This is the sign
Warning those
approaching
Beware of the
consequences of trespassing against me
Silence fills the air
Deafening negative
vibes echo through the space of disconnect
Bitterness is bread
from anger
Magnified by
conditional love
Sharp words pierce the
thin veil of what use-to-be
Revealing all that has
come to pass
Time stands still
The last sweet notes of
this beautiful love song are played
Regret would be found
if I chose to continue to listen to this
I offer no apology for
surviving
Forgiveness to myself
eases the former excuses given
I remove myself from
that man
The mistakes of the
past are behind me now
Not in front of me
And this path I take
I've learned the lesson
of you
Just as I was about to
crucify myself upon the embrace of your love.
