Reading the Past Pt2

Keep in mind
That now, everything is fine 
Theres no grudge or anger on this end 
For I had asked the lord to repent
Not just for me but, for you too
Because thou shall not know what thou do

I have put the past away in a file
Considering, it's been years later, now I am with child
Gifted with a close knit family
That I had been dreaming about which, felt like an eternaty.
My children are chatty as well happy today
Better then they were then in that day
No eruption of spontaneous commotion
No toxicity that would have me bend the knee
No walls that I beg for to fall
No with held care an love that i need to ponder over of
My life isnt exactly what you call perfect 
But to me, it's as perfect as what it can be without the beast or serpent 
I prefer the humble as well to be
Because that's what the lord expects of thee

For this, my belief of marriage have changed
As I am blessed to say it has been arranged 
I no longer have my last name
Nor the past of it which only the future of the continuous new remain

So, as you spit, twist and call me out of my name in vain
Just remember, 
You're alone in this, stuck with past of your own error thoughts, which are hateful and dismembered 

I pray that you heal
I pray that in time positives reveal
I pray that you find peace an happiness
An not the constant horrid thoughts you have had continuous 
I pray the guilt is relieved 
I pray for you to be healthy as well mentally 
As my good lord has taken care of me, he will take care of you 
I have faith if you truly let him in fully too

Take care and bless thee
I will no longer be
Reading the past or making a future part three
