with you

I say good-bye to you
......Everyday......
I try to find clever ways
Of letting you go
Of moving on
Symbolically
Metaphorically
Spiritually
…..and just when I think
I’ve succeeded in convincing  your memory
To stop haunting me
I awake to your chains
Rattling inside my heart
Taunting me
Challenging me
To find a way
To excise all thoughts of you
Once and for all


~SEA~

You can tell your heart to let go, but, it never can and besides unconsciousy it refuses to anyways.  Very well expressed, I relate more than you could ever know, in fact, I've been trying to let go of someone for almost 4 years now, the pain never goes away

this really lifted me, it has a strength to it, something I can hold onto.

A great read SEA, worry not of the memories, accept the past that can't be changed, cherish the thoughts that bring happiness and the devil of grief will slowly leave.

Sometimes you must leave the ghosts to rattle their chains and enjoy their hauntings....
