You walked away without looking back
Did you hear the calls from behind
Calmness is filling your space
I see now you had to leave
No turbulence or feelings of woe
Trapped in a world you resented
Broken free from a cage built with love
I see now it was never meant to be
Needless scars slashed across those who held the locks
Regrets of holding a restless spirit
Cradled soft hearts dropped from one made of stone
I see now they were a gift to me
Acceptance of the misunderstood
Wishing peace to a soul born with disquiet
Unspoken forgiveness passes in the night
I see you now and know there will never be a we
Powerful and poignant. “Wishing peace to a soul born with disquiet” is indeed futile.

That’s my only defense and way to understand is to wish them peace one day but I know you are correct

Understanding helps with acceptance yet the trick is to skip the debate that makes wrong right and try to grieve such cleaner of stain. I said trick now. Thanks for stopping by
