Time

Forget about the hurt i hold, is what i tell myself.
Confine it to a deep dark place meticulously hidden on a shelf.
Laughter and jokes, is how i hide the grief.
If i make you laugh or smile i have done my job, is my belief.
Never choosing to wallow in my self pitty,  is my goal.
Just wish my heart and head, would listen to my soul.
Setting myself free from pain is one day going to be.
Then you and I myfriend,  will throw a party  to being free.
Life is never fair , but never have any doubt.
No matter  how many years it takes,
You will always find your way out.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
