PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

As emptiness beckons me to awaken

I open my eyes and see

It is so much more than I want to know

Why can’t I be set free

These memories are haunting my dreams

One after another wakes me in the night

Please tell me how I can let go

Of the child within me that wants to fight

No this can’t be not another for me

I’ve lived the tale

Why must it haunt my dreams

This child inside me is stuck in a jail

I want to find the key to set her free

I know I have the strength the courage and wisdom

I just cant find the cell that holds her for eternity
