My Sacrifice

Thoughts of you are not temporary
I beg of them to rest in my mindless cemetery
I try not to love you But its hard to undo
Wanting to move on with my life and try something new
What have you done to me
Why does the effects of your love still hinder me
Withholding relationship fruitions Because of my emotional position
Leaves me to wonder what will come of this operation
Forgive me for my lack of love when you needed it as best
My selfishness caused you to put our relationship at rest
Birth a new love that our hearts may desire I will sacrifice for what's real as I walk through the fire
Maybe in the afterlife this symbol will be a reminder
How I walked for true love as my soul retired

THANK YOU SHELLEY-ANNE I LIKE TO WRITE FROM THE SOUL WHEN EXPRESSING MYSELF...
Big emotions and feels here. I would quote like the other awesome poets here, but its harder on the phone, all I can say is that writing it all out is really therapeutic isn't it. I know many poets on Cosmos who started just because of that. So welcome! Wishing you peace and calm waters. The Fish the Sea
THANK YOU FOR YOUR WELCOMING AND SUPPORT AND I WILL CONTINUE WITH MY POETRY...
XD... That's what we`re here for...
On reading this I was reminded of a painful love afffair... and how it still
is in there. with embers that will never be put out... Once that fire is lit..
it is an eternal flame... it is just that it can no longer blaze....
love the this
