Breath of A Shattered Soul

Surrounded by sweet sounding deception
Lies caught in worded session
Hatred, anger, hurt and disgust
Admissions of misguided trust

Stabbing pains, bewildered heart
Closure needed for a new start

Sneaking suspicions open old wounds
Characters cheated of honesty too soon
Sorry's galore can never replace
Dreams thwarted in one embrace

Alas, these feelings must be heard
No heated moments in absurd word

Grieve the loss but remember the journey
Mercy is needed on this cursed memory

Forgiveness the breath of a shattered soul
Remembering, awakening to feel whole

Lies

All the lies that have been said
have left an imprint in my head
All the secrets that have been told
have been said to another, uncontrolled
All the rumors that have been heard
have created lies with exaggerated word
All the agony that has been lived
has been left to die, forgiven
All the sadness that has been expressed
has been shut out and laid to rest
All the pain that has been felt
has been created or unfelt
All the sorrows that aren't meant to see
have been expressed for all but me
