Anew
Anew
All at once it all was shattered
All was shaken up and crushed
Love became a misconception
Thoughts and feelings were all rushed
Pain and sadness start to battle
Disbelief has joined in too
Trust refuses to be present
Prudence knows not what to do
And the chaos is confronting
It’s confusion at its best
I could use some consolation
Just to put my mind to rest
But the doubt was set in motion
And the hurt is creeping in
My self-image is now crumbling
Let the hating now begin!
All these feelings and emotions
One by one they take their toll
I am losing my composure
I must now decide my goal
I will hear of no forgiving
I want vengeance out of spite
There’s no use for conversation
I refuse to reunite
But the heart can not be trusted
Even though there was a pact
Made by reasoning and feelings
In the end one will deflect
And the storm will start abating
Suddenly the air will clear
As I walk amidst the rubble
I find things that I hold dear
So I pick up all the pieces
And I find not just a few
All of this gives me the courage
To forgive and start anew.
