How much longer can the thoughts of the past be suppressed?
When will I find the courage to unlock the secrets of past
Things I have hidden from friends and family, lest
they think less of me .
Those long ago days when I made the wrong choices causing
hurt to so many people so much hurt.
Each day that passes makes it even harder to right the wrongs
Finding it so easy to put it off for maybe another day.
Will they hate me when they find out the truth of long gone days,
Or understand and be forgiving?
How to start to unravel the twists and turns of deceit in the maze
It has to be done so once again I can begin living.
Praying I have the courage to do what must be done,
pen in hand I begin to uncover what was hidden.
In a letter to them one by one.
Heart in hand the letters posted all that remains
is to wait and hope that forgiveness can be found.
