[hometext] => I had written a poem called ”Painful Memories” last year. (on the old site) It’s about my marriage and what came of it. I left him Oct. 2, 1999. Haven’t returned. This write I have now, is I believe one of the last parts to my healing of learning to forgive someone who hurt me, someone who I stopped loving that night of abuse that took away 16yrs of what I thought was my life with one man, to be true. I grew up with abuse, so this doesn’t get a second chance, nor the fact he hadn’t any remorse for what he did, or ever say he was sorry. The pain inflicted was and still is intense. I’m trying to learn and open my heart to forgive my ex. This will take some time, and I pray I can do this and really open and free my heart and mind.
[bodytext] => I have a desire to be free Free of the hatred of what I feel for my ex I need to see past the pain of what he did to me Work on seeing in me to pray for his unfeeling index The list can go on, but I won’t let it be this way To know what I need to do and act upon it Is something that will take all of my soul to pray Free me from him, to know he still can torment My mind of what was, now, I must be The one to open my heart, pray for him From his evil misdeeds, let him see The real truth of his own heart, hiding this sin It will be difficult, I know But its part of my healing to grow And be myself, away from what was Move to what is, a new heart that loves Amber Rose Yeager – July 31, 2002 [comments] => 3 [counter] => 209 [topic] => 21 [informant] => rose [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
