(3/3) Let It All Go

i don’t re-call why

shedding these tears

causes you to fly

with my fears.

Erase Our memory.

i’ll do anything

to not feel empty.

it’s all so tempting

because

what You wanted,

i couldn’t give.

i am haunted

to simply forgive

but

what You did

i can never forget.

I will forbid

any future threat.

I am through

wasting my tears on you.

Like everyone else, I've gone through my hardships and I know there are more to come. I've lost friends whom were close to me, I've suffered with grades in school, and I have my own family issues. I used to write with a pessimistic perspective, as you'll see in my earlier writings, but people change with time. I don't want to view what has happened and what will happen through a dark haze. I now write with a more hopeful attitude despite if I'm sad or angry. By reading these, you're getting to know the inner me and though I encourage constructive criticism, for that reason, please be honest and kind. Thank you and, by the way, it's nice to meet you! ;)
