Ties that bind you

Ties that bind you

A Poem by B.J
"

Breaking soul ties, moving on

"
Ties that bind you Soul ties!
Soul ties! I had never heard of them, till today
Now I know what they are,
Loathsome, ties that bind you, from deep within,
I have cried out for God's, help now, wondering if He will hear my cries
Attachments that bind me, attachments that tied me to another soul,
Ties, that buried, deeper, than my soul, hidden, buried,
Cancel, revoke the evil spirit, of those ties that bind,
A passion that once flowed, wreaked havoc on my life

His eyes held my heart in lock down, a dressing down of lies,
That once held my heart, he monopolized, and held me captive,
My soul now depleted, an inner spirit now demonic, I'm in pieces,
Looking in a mirror, I did not know who I was, I was not alive
How do you battle the loss of ones soul, with a broken heart?
Walk through life with mental depression, one foot after another
If only, If only, so many times, fear, demise, so many times,

To maybe break into the memories, the breaking of hurtful, memories
Is it possible, to finally be free, to find my inner- self again, too
Delight in my personal, victories, not so distant memories,
This war that has been fought, on the inside of my body, mind and soul
A private war I fought for many years, in my mind and heart,
Now I wonder can I undo a mangled soul, untie the knots wound so tight
Isolated and yet longing for a new start

I have a grappling hook now, climbing a mountain, trying stay on top,
There once was a love that began so young, I wonder how did it go so wrong,
I was out of my mind, his touch sent me into another world, a kiss so gentle at times
I missed the signs, of my very being, dissolving away,
Now I know I am cleansing my mind, breaking,  soul ties,
I pray now to God to put closure on my soul ties,
My days and nights now, I pray for Gods wisdom, and the breaking of those soul ties
I create a life now without those ties, restored

I enjoyed this work and I know, on one level, how you feel to be spiritually shackled. It's indeed good:) However, I would add a few more commas for rhythm (commas in poetry and some prose are used for indication of slight pause/where to take a breath and say next sentence). One way to check rhythm is to speak the piece out loud to yourself and/or out loud to someone. However, the more commas are just suggestions. Good word choice and poem in general:))
