PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

It's hard to imagine it's been so long,
Since I've heard you sing a single song
Since you have been gone.
Didn't think I would make it, let go of my fears
But now it's been a few good years.
The pain was there for a little while,
I would hide in my room and cry like a child.
Listening to the rain beat on the shingles,
Of this house, in this town where no dream is let live.
You had taught me one good lesson, to forgive.
And that is how I've made it so far,
I forgave you, forgot all those short drives in your car.
Those times you made me smile, made me feel confident,
I always felt so beautiful, and you seemed heaven sent.
But I learned that even bad things can come from there,
Like satan himself, feeling superior destroys things my dear.
You've been gone for long, and I hope you're glad
I know I am, I've forgotten words that were said.
The constant memories left my heart,
and now I can live in peace.
Without your voice and sad memories constantly haunting me.
God brought me there, and He led me out
The lessons I've learned will always be remembered
And now I will take a new route.
The rain doesn't beat on my house anymore,
The sun shines through the windows, and kid, I'm out the door.
