And Then There Was None

teardrop

Vicious battle
never won
jokes to others
pain for some.

Ferocious tongues
as daggers slay
cut your throat
as they play.

Slice and dice
skin so deep
eternal scars
to always keep.

They say love
through unclaimed hate
perhaps it's just
destined fate.

Can't let go
though I try
endless time
passes by.

Need to cry
tears won't come
try to shed them
one by one.

Searching for
that inner place
feel the blood
warmth with embrace.

Run away
run real fast
no more pain
of the past.

          I think it was Sadhguru who said that we have a choice whether to continue to torture ourselves with memories or not. For sure, I'm tired of doing that to myself!
