Time for a showdown with my ruptured soul, because I have come to the breaking point; no more- the sad past has taken a toll, I will end fear and express my viewpoint. Time for a showdown and confrontation, living in the dead past is not living; to stay this way will be my damnation, I accept life can be unforgiving. Time for a showdown and decisive fight, from this day I lock away my deep grief; I will look to the future with delight, go away sorrow that comes like a thief. Time for a showdown with my battered heart, new paths are unfolding so past- DEPART. ___________________________ March 6, 2018 Poetry/Rhyme/Time for a Showdown Copyright Protected, ID 18-1001-747-01 All Rights Reserved.

I love the positive note t'wards the end of your sonnet here. I likened your first few verses to the pain and irritability of a herniated disk which my son is experiencing of late.
