My first poem online

Making peace with the past - a poem by me (my very first online poem).

.

There is so much, yet somehow nothing to say.

.

It all took me where I am today.

.

The tears. The loss. The pain. 

.

I know, it was never in vain.

.

Forever within me it will stay.

.

And in all honesty I don’t even want it to go away.

.

Because even if I broke,

.

and wanted to choke.

.

I somehow found my way home.

.

To my safe little dome.

.

The space that is within me.

.

I learned to to see.

.

The power that I hold.

.

It made me bold.

.

Now I am strong,

.

and I know I’ve also done things wrong.

.

This is not to blame.

.

This is not to shame.

.

And it sure the hell is not a game.

.

I needed you, the past.

.

You helped me cast,

.

The path that I am on now.

.

So let me just say wow and

.

Thank you.
