Drama

Christina8

I used to feel like I was

enslaved by my traumas

Thought about the old

but unending dramas

They would come at night

to enslave my dreams

But love has released me

Let go of it all it seems

 

Now the past that haunts me

Is not allowed, but images here or there

My childhood past is not allowed

to hurt, offend, pain or scare.

 

I have love beside me

When it comes to my nightmares

I don't have to be afraid

When I wake up, my love is there

              I really love this poem, Christina! There is nothing we can do about our past, it is water under the bridge. And just like that water flows downstream, we have to let our past go. You said it so beautiful. The last stanza touched me. We always talk about love in our heart, but you reminded me that love is also beside me, ready to step in whenever help is needed. Great poem!

                • Christina8

                  Christina, love is truly what makes life special. When you know you have love from your husband, your partner, friends and family that you can count on then life gets to be lighter. Lovely reading here. You are a special person one can tell by your writings.

                  • Christina8

                    Oh, that was truly sweet of you to say. You are a dear friend! I appreciate all the compliments! What a wonderful review!

                    I love this so much, and reflects my journey from the last two years. Not only do I have what you have but I understand for my self that I could one day be alone again and my lady has shown me I could cope with that, like I have all the rest of the times.
                    To be set free with this love but with no over attachment, from my self, due to my childhood pain, is helping in all aspects of my life. I still have a away to go but a breath of air you give with your words to help me on this road.

                    Thank you for being perfectly you!

                    • Christina8

                      Thank you so much for a multitude of things Dan! "thank you for being perfectly you!"--That really warmed my heart. Thank you for that. Yes we both have love and are lucky but are going through journeys. I really appreciate you taking the time to read my poem and reflect on it. Thanks for the favorite save! If we aren't friends yet, we should be! lol Thanks again for everything--Christina
