HELL'S HARNESS
Folder:
JOURNAL # 41 though the ending now
is blessedly close
still, it's those last few
bindings that cut
the harshest
with rusted scissors
he slashes
his own pain only knows
how to hurt
hate is the dark, twisted
side of love
I refuse to hate
for I know the complications
for the soul it can create
I see the wounds it inflicts
and I cannot allow myself
to become like that
perhaps he never really loved
and it was just his hate
all prettied up
I saw its claws many years prior
questioned their appearance
so early on
refused to believe what it was
I was witnessing
made excuses even in my own mind
but looking back now
I truly know
it was always hate poorly dressed
in love's tattered clothing
and this, 'Hell's Harness'
I can finally escape
please forgive him God
I don't believe he, himself
fully understands
the why's and when of
what all he has done
let these lessons to his own
soul finally sink in..................

wow powerful stuff!
Sounds like a real trial. What a hurtful way to end. Sad, yes I do agree with not hating. I don't need it, besides I've never been verygood at it, I might get very mad, but hate is really shaping the bottom of the barrel. Strong write stay well cheers SS

"Well, it's love, but not as we know it."
Thanks so much for the encouragement..........
I can safely say now two years out that I got through it and did alright........ I never hated. I washed my hands of him but I've never hated him. Any time I think of him or for whatever reason I am reminded of him. I send a little light and love via some prayers his way.....Your comments were spot on Smoothie thanks so much truly......M.
