Salvation

Salvation

A Poem by therisa
"

Power of the written word.

"
Simple
Suggestion
Made to me
But a powerful idea
Shaping my life
For almost six years
Now.
 
Writing out
My past
Leeching out
The poison
As the ink flows
Across the page.
 
Shining
A bright light
Where darkness
Once ruled
Unopposed.
 
As It
Darkened my soul
With hate and anger
To the world
And myself.
 
But now
Each pen stroke
Purifies my soul
As the poison
Leaves me
Forever.
