Prisoner No More
You sentenced me
my shackles
fear
hate
shame
self-loathing
resentment, memories
of pain inflicted
bind me to you.
I drag my chains
heavy with despair
rusted with tears
long to be set free.
Blame burns my mind.
I cannot, will not forget,
yet my heart seeks peace.
Liberation lies within.
No lock can withstand
the force of forgiveness.
I alone hold the key.
Beautiful poem! I could feel every word deep within me. Thank you for such a beautiful piece of art!
