Gayle Rodd Poet Rhyme

Leftovers

If I could find
within my mind

a way to erase
all traces of time

Then I would start
to tear apart

words stuffed away 
in mind and heart

The ones that hide 
and still abide - 

the pain that feeds 
the hurt inside

And if I could
I surely would

leave only things 
left for the good

Jesse Zerlaut March 28, 2017 at 10:01 AM This flows so well. I absolutely know what you mean with this poem. I feel that way sometimes. I'd be a much better person without some of the emotional pain I've suffered. maybe I'd be a bit less jaded. Thank you for sharing this with us! I give it a 7 Gayle Rodd March 28, 2017 at 11:10 AM thx Jesse
