Let it die with me
Those memories
Bring not but pain
Pain that kills the future
Nothing held sacred
Will be sacred forever
Ashes are scattered
Memories are shattered
The past holds the future hostage
With a lock that has no key
But you are not a chest stuck in place
You are a person that can be free
Bottling up inside
Emotions that build until they erupt
To your detriment
Numbed by the opiate of pain
Cursed is your past
When the future is filled with your lamentations
When those ghosts whisper to you on rainy days
When you sit alone sobbing to their memory
The dead will not resurrect
They would if they could that you would not be alone
They are in the eternal peace
While you have no will to trudge on
Much work will find you
One day
Much happiness will be found in the morrow
Until you soar on the wings of peace
Nothing left to bear
