"Serve You Well"

The bonds we did not break...

Are not solely up to us to repair...

From what is done and said

Is a step away from the truth

Now becomes the distance of a lie

Mistakes left uncorrected

Brings shadows

Gray shades colour in where radiance once shone

Life has so many paths

Leading us all...

Good or bad...

Most would not even give it a second thought

But we should give thanks to all that has brought us here

Each moment a building block in time

We do our best to forget

To stop loving...

Or caring...

But there is no true disconnect

Everyone and everything its a part of us from the beginning

And to the end...

Its the acknowledgment given

That we have learned what has been taken

Grown passed that which we cannot understand

To be more than that moment

Allowance in forgiveness is heavy

Let go of that which does not serve you well...

Hate is just another way of holding on

Release the ties...

If not for them...

Do it all for you...

Unlock the chains of guilt

Set free the anger that pollutes your heart

Bitterness, fear, distrust should not be held within the same hand as love

Embrace yourself

Live passed the lesson learned

Because you don't live there anymore.
