Master of Your Fate

My crystal ball is hazy, but through clouds I see a form,
a shape so damaged that it seems too fragile for the norm.
I don’t suspect that words of mine will resonate with you,
but listen with much more than ears, at words I know are true.
Whatever ails you from the past has left a lasting scar
that no one close can yet erase, or from your memories bar.
It dominates your waking day and infiltrates your night..
It colours everything you do and makes you loath to fight.
But fight you must to keep the demons on your shoulders still,
and give you half a chance to once again restore your will.
That will to say “the past is past and cannot me define,
my future is a better place and one I can design.
I won’t forget but can replace the misery once felt,
and take on light within that darkness once wherein I dwelt”
Please let me help to find a way to make your past a place,
where memories fade and joy appears and slowly will erase
the torment, and the sadness, that has dominated you,
and open up the blinds to let the warming sun shine through.

hey LODIGIANA!!.....this is a VERY compelling piece.....it has a great flow to it that makes it so easy to comprehend........ and the subject matter so easy to relate to..... like Stevie said.....a sadness that lands in the sunshine!!..... tons-O-stars!!..... well done dear poet sister!!.....LOVE and ROCKETS!!......T xo ?☀✴♥✳?♥??
Since being on Cosmofunnel I have read so much relating to how many poets struggle with issues they are dealing with from their past...many times they maybe will write about it but say NOTHING to those closest to them..this is a request maybe that listening and talking to people who care maybe can be a start for them..If they say nothing.. then often nothing is known...
Thank you for your lovely words Tony- always so appreciated xxx
