The Rocks


a rocky future
built from the past
issues unresolved
secrets i can't admit
feelings i bury
thoughts i ignore
a collection of what if's
repeated mistakes
detours and dead ends
things i left behind
now loom ahead

time to climb through
regardless the wounds
time to shed tears
and let the blood flow
time to be strong
and learn to grow
for if i don't
they will reappear



Life presents many challenges and opportunities.  Lessons we must learn.  When we choose to ignore these lessons they tend to come back again.  Each time more forceful than the previous time.  The mistakes we make tend to visit us over and over, until we get it right.  As daunting as it seems, perhaps it is time to face them head on. 


Taking the time to deal with our issues allows us to truly put the past to rest.  It allows us to love ourselves.  When we love ourselves, we tend to attract love from others.   Time to get love off the rocks.
