Forgiveness

Green plaid, black vans. What I 
remember from that day. Fake 
smiles and crude jokes are 
what kept you occupied they 
say. You laughed. Not a care 
felt from you. Guilt maybe, but 
yet it was still a joke to you. 
Looked into my eyes and just 
fed me lies. I won't tell you, 
but just know. That day a little 
piece of me died.  A weight on 
my heart I wore every day. A 
weight I prayed would just go 
away. But today I write this, 
tears on my cheeks so long 
afterwards yet my heart still 
feels weak. I've asked for the 
patience, so that I may forgive. 
Forgive you for the pain that I 
felt so hard that day. I thought 
that was through. It was over 
with now, but a single thought 
brought back and I'm weeping 
softly as my head bows. I've 
prayed and wailed for peace 
within, but I cannot hope for 
peace if I have not truly 
forgiven him. In time this will 
pass and my heart will feel 
new. And on that day will the 
words be said "I've finally 
forgiven you".

Happiness Forsaken

It's a pain that is oh so familiar to 
me now. The emptiness, it's no 
surprise. It comes on so suddenly. 
So high then low in a simple 
glimpse. There is no warning. It 
catches me when I'm weak. Rapes 
my mind, and leaves me oblivious to 
my well being. There is no cure. I 
have grown to believe it. My heart, it 
hurts and my eyes are burning. I 
blink and they all fall. My tears 
staining. I've hit an all time low, and 
I don't know how to reverse it. My 
brain is aching. Too much at once. 
My body can take so much. I'm at 
an overload. I don't know my own 
thoughts. There are too many. My 
feelings are unknown. God please 
reveal them to me, and relieve me 
before I break down. Bring the war 
in my heart at peace. I pray to you 
but it is like i am unheard. Where is 
my strength. I am overwhelmed with 
sorrow. I just want to be happy.
