no matter what she tried and tried
her heart from inside out had cried
but from herself she could not hide
then she felt the sound of her tears
struggling to drown the ghosts of her fears
keeping them with her always near
sorrow trickling down her face
washing away love’s lost grace
leaving her soul without a trace
her heart from inside out had cried
but from herself she could not hide
then she felt the sound of her tears
struggling to drown the ghosts of her fears
keeping them with her always near
sorrow trickling down her face
washing away love’s lost grace
leaving her soul without a trace

As always, just beautiful! Love this image, too!
Trish
oh, thanks, trish - a little re-post actually, but it felt right at the moment -
The images you select are always a profound and poignant image for your words. I love the poem; to me it feels like it is a testiment to the difficulty of Letting Go.
how wonderful to have you come by and leave such kind words, pam! about letting go - yes, perhaps - or perhaps forgiveness of self and/or redemption/salvation - i'm not always sure, myself!!! my muses don't always let me in on their little secrets! ;)
oh, and about the images, pam - you know, sometimes i find the words first and then search for the image or sometimes i find the image and then the words come for that particular image - in this case, the words were first and there seemed no other possibility but this image for them - i'm a visually-oriented person so the "matching" really matters to me - thank you for your kind words -
this is beautiful but it's sad. Or I felt sad reading it.
