Poem -
Wasted love.
Thinking back now on those years
I suppose you just stated your views,
All of my anger, all of my shame
Lay wasted at my feet.
And the guilt is so redundant
Washed away in the salt of tears,
The loathing that I'd felt
Lost to the myth of time.
Dread and despair diminished
Loneliness beguiled by other things,
Jealousy and envy lie in ruins
Only the love endures.
So I offer up my penitence
For my sinfulness and disgrace,
And I pray you could acquit me
From all the pain and hurt I've Caused.

It's not an easy thing...to confront your mistakes; particularly those which caused pain to those you purported to love...it's even more difficult to say it out loud.
But it's such a great place to mine for that rich vein of poetry. And it can be cathartic...or, at least, that's what we tell ourselves.
Keep mining ... I think you may have struck gold!!

Thank you, for your kind and inspiring words Jason. I believe that your right, there's a great sense of purification to be had if only, we would permit ourselves. I will continue to chip away, at this vast wealth of knowledge and precious gem, poetry.
