Moving on

 

Picking up the pieces of my once perfect life,

a whole new world is there for the taking,

i,m not placing blame, or twisting the knife,

all the best things are now for the making.

 

For months i cried tears, but now they have dried,

a whole new path i am walking,

my heartache and pain i have now defied,

no more screaming or thinking or talking.

 

My new home is perfect and filled with my things,

not filled with the hatred you felt,

i can dance on the table, run round naked and sing,

never feel all the secrets you kept.

 

my new lifes beginning, a most heartfelt feeling,

you are now just a distant regret,

i will live my next chapter, with eyes that are seeing,

and you my sweet memory, i will forget.

well done, my similar poem that corresponds well to this, is called 'I had a piece of you".
-I wish S. Plath could of felt like this & moved on.

This poem conveys to me a feeling being in limbo. No longer "there", but not quite "here" - but yet well on the way. I feel resignation and determination to begin anew and to get beyond a stinging sadness. As if the past was being surgically removed to save the future. So much emotion woven in the fabric of this poem.

Yea, similar to my fire of love. To be free of the BS and to just live and love yourself. Excellent piece. Thanks for sharing.
