Music, Conductor, Symphony, Musical

Just to be free I will take a chance, Without a backward glance To close the door and lose the key That has been too oft used To unlock memories better lost in the sea Of forgetfulness. Just to be unbruised From a lifetime of hurt And from all the recorded grooves Played and replayed like a concert That never improves and always subverts Any chance of happiness, Or at least a peaceful armistice.

An honest acceptance of negative past experiences better forgotten, so one can move on. Very well expressed!...ab
