Why Will You Not Leave Me

Why won't you leave me I beg and plead for this sadness to go I pray and hope for this anger to subside I dream and yearn for these thoughts to drain out Once I loved you,we were family are family But the pain you have caused me It's anger and fury still resides in me and haunts my tender mind in my dreams It's vengeance I try slowly to subdue And yet do you ever think about the tears you have evoked in me Do you think about the scars that linger deep in my humble body The blemishes of their residing hopelessness The seed of such hate and anger,pain and despair,sorrow and sadness Had I not yet seen but it is embedded in me I fear in my soul Memories that grab me by a gigantic force when I in thoughtlessness reside Bring upon me the fear of never being free When you so lightly as if by the wind remind me of those painfilled days When I feel the footsteps of those dark times gone by hollow the ground behind me Oh how I wish I could let you go, unburden this burden Know the whisper of forgiveness Perhaps then I would be restful in my slumber And alive in my dreams For you shall no longer hurt me by memories and heartache That had never known the words I'm sorry And I will let be in my secret corner of my heart,my mind,my soul For I will be set free.
