Boundaries

Adri


Lines that hold
Boundaries are made
Bold
On impulse
Breaking them down
Like a charade
Feeling foolish
Like Mount Gay!
Slap in the face
Do not chase
Boundaries were made
Now broken
Get back up
Nothing much stolen
Just my heart
that needs controlling!
How do we get back what was lost
And at what cost
Forgiveness is key
So hear my pleas

    Live, learn and figure it out.
    Lovely write, forgiveness is the key. To others but mostly ourselves.
    Definitely letting it go too!

            Yes forgiving is closure too. After that worries and/or guilt will fade. We learn from our mistakes and wisdom ensues.

            A very intriguing poem Adri, with a great message. Well written too!
            It is so easy to see a boundary if it consists of a fence, but people's boundaries are invisible. How can you blame somebody for crossing something they did not see? OK, I guess it does depend on the kind of boundary and the kind of trespassing. Some boundaries are dictated by society, norm, common sense. But others are very personal. You forgive for the first kind, but no forgiveness is needed for the second kind since it was unintentional.
            I think I got carried away a bit here. Sorry for the ramble.
            Short and sweet: I do like your poem!
