LETTING GO OF THE PAIN


Letting Go Of The Pain 

Letting go of the pain, moving on with life. 
Was something hard for me to do , 
I at one time let others tell me what to do , 
Oh how it left me so confused, 
How do we let go of the pain we feel, 
The cuts that never heal a world of the darkness 
That puts you through hell , 
I know the one that eats us up who I am , 
The one that scream, yell, cry or write, 
Whatever helps us to get by. 
I walked as a lost child , 
I lived a life as one ,  
That put my hopes and dreams on hold . 
I woke up each day, grateful to be alive. 
I look darkness in the eyes , 
I gave a vow to live each day to the fullest. 
Be grateful of each blessing I get and hope  
Another to find a way to recover , 
Take to no one for granted, not even the smallest. 
Young or old we almost grow and learn from the 
Pain we hold from a darken old world . 
I open my Bible and ask Jehovah God to show me  
The way to live my life right and to help me let go of  
All the pains that kept me in the night of shame and 
Pains of a world of darkness of broken heavyhearted ones .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
