Yesterday was a bitter dream

And today is not much better

Trying to clear your head

But it's too cluttered

Too many stray thoughts

Hiding in the dark corners of your mind

And as you approach them

You find

That they are

Thoughts of loved ones and family members you've left behind

Time passes

But does nothing for the pain

You tell yourself you can forgive them

Over and over and over again

Until you realise that forgiveness is not really a part

Of your heart

It actually begins

To seep in

That there is nothing standing between you

And the edge

You feel the tugging sensation

As the temptation to jump and put a bitter end to it all

Becomes so strong

Its overwhelming

You know its wrong

But you feel like you're out of choices

In your head

Nothing but screaming voices

So disappointed

In you

That you've been anointed

The disappointment

Now its dark

And you're stuck in an endless tunnel

They tell you to look for the light at the end

But no light does heaven send

But you're not surprised

This is how things tend

To turn out, nothing but bitter blackness on the sunrise

Dark Tower

I never really understood the saying "forgive but not forget" It can be a struggle to do this. . . I wish you luck in this
