Past MistakesA Poem by StevenMy body remains frozen, when will you appear The blood flow is stagnate, the cells are full of fear I must forbear my thoughts, to just up and run Where do I find the strength to stay till it's done My face looks so impassive, but inside it's a nightmare No one in sight, yet I'm hearing "I'll be right there" I was beguiled to believe, the pain wouldn't last long Feeling so guilty, nothing looks right, everything sounds wrong Is this normal, I'm noticing my faith being subverted The once surged courage, has now been deserted I stare deep into my reflection, listening as my heart speaks Resilient eyes, exploiting painful past mistakes down my cheeks I desperately cry out for help, to that true inner me He says "I'm here now, forgive yourself, and be free" I relinquish the past hurtings, pains, and past mistakes To be unfeignly happy, I've learned that's what it takes © 2012 StevenAuthor's Note
