Let me breathe
take this bag from my back
For a moment
The skin is sore and the bones ache.
Let me close my eyes
They sting for all they have seen
Tear will well
Images swirl beneath my eye lids
Let my mind cease
And not dwell on things with no end
Though do not let me wander dreamland
There are far darker things in those depths
Let me close my heart
It has invited too much
It aches
With each beat it makes

Wonderfully crafted this poem dips down into the well of emotion and brings up lost feelings of pain from the past. A great write
