Burdens

The past is so distinctive and memorable And yet I do not recall it's sentiment The shadows of what was cloud my judgement and hopes It's hard to peer through the blindfolds With each removal I find another...tired! Tired of lifting this heavy heart..these heavy burdens of my soul Why does my soul ache? Why does it hurt so? Why can't I remove myself to dull the pain? The past is easy to forgive but it does not easily forgive These ghosts of my past will always torture me

Hi Andy-I like what you have written.Guilt is a heavy burden. We all make mistakes we're only human.But if we can't accept forgiveness for ourselves how can we forgive others. Would you agree?Thank you for sharing these words.Luv June
