I lie curled up in a ball Exhausted from giving my all Feeling a sense of release My body relaxes in peace My muscles are no longer tense From life’s recent events My mind is now at ease There is no one here to tease My emotions have been spent Since my heart was bent Now the healing begins And my face wears a grin I sleep throughout the night No longer filled with fright The hours gently pass As quietly as Sunday Mass My lips say a prayer As often as I dare Begging of the Son To make the pieces one They were scattered about As I let out a shout Reeling from the pain Of regret's awful strain I feel it no more Its weight I bore I now can see It wasn’t all me You played a part In destroying my heart Tangled up in lies Trying to disguise I was never fooled Our love slowly cooled Until none was left Leaving me bereft I gave my all In spite of it all To no avail Deceit prevails Time for the past To be buried at last I move into the sun My mourning is done A new day dawns I’m not your pawn I live for only me In sweet tranquility All writing comes |

This was really... somewhere in the middle of disturbing, sad, and lovely all at the same time. |
