A Poetic Memoir Of My Journey Through Life

Recapture


Sometimes you step

into my dreams

As though you’ve belonged there

all along.

But even there,

can you not see…

You deserve no portion of me,

I’ve grown strong.

~

Once I lived, feeling only fractions of life,

half alive.

You took my heart,

you stole my soul.

An explosive war ensued to recapture

what is mine.

I may have collapsed to pieces…

now I am virtually whole.

~

I am no longer part of

your collection…

I am mine, I am me.

You didn’t need…

To let go, to release my glory

and imperfections,

I had to let go, release you,

and reclaim me…

~

Who are you to posses

so much power?

To have left me listless,

lacking life…

You never had that which

I didn’t hand over.

I feel the warmth of my heart and soul…

I breathe in life.

~Goodbye~
