Poetry: Overcoming challenges

by Life's Pleasure

Created on: February 17, 2007   Last Updated: May 14, 2007

I find myself digging through things
Looking for a something
Something you once gave me
Something I thought was from the heart
But with your lies and betrayal
I am finding something new
With each new item I throw away
I am letting go
Eventually you will be nothing more
Than a memory
The tears are almost done flowing
And I have stopped asking why
My respect for you has diminished
But my spirit once stifled by your jealous ways
Is coming back stronger
So with each letter I burn and each picture I rip
I am reborn
Shedding my skin and letting go
Letting go of all of you
Letting go of all you made me into
Letting go of everything to find something new
