Cut Ties
You lied
many times
didn’t say why
told me every fault
called hurtful names
became normal
forgetting self value
no direction
only yours.
you scarred
many ways
for no reason
made it your life’s work
to make it hurt
now you search
the adult runaway
better sometimes
to cut ties
than to feel like you died.
Sunrise to sunset
just so you receive
all you can get
you said
I’d never amount
run back to you eventually
having no sense
wait, hope or pray…
planned against that day
grown up since then
harm me effects you
in the end.
so let go
follow my lead
I’m happy with me.
Forgiven
All awash
too much time has been lost
living is on my mind
Love has returned
painful ties
are my last concern.
-Symphony
