Poem Commentary

There was alot of pain in my past. Being hurt and abused seemed to come natural for me. It took me a very long time to realize ttat I would be forever haunted by that dark time in my life. I have learned to forgive everyone who caused me pain and to my surprisse I felt so free afterwards.Forgiving those who hurt you is the way to finally find peace in yourself and believe me its worth it to let that grudge go.

Dark Shadows

There appears to be a dark shadow that never goes away,
Why is it at times I feel so sure that it's here to forever stay?
My feet seem to get heavier with every other step I take
Always so frightened that no matter what I did would lead to another mistake.
Its a lonely path I travel with many dangerous curves and turns,
Each road I take gets harder but its one more lesson learned.
I pray each day that darkness will be gone finally at last.
I found forgiveness was the answer and that the dark shadow was my past.

"I found forgiveness was the answer and that the dark shadow was my past."—your wisdom is heavenly. Peace and Light, dah

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
