Locking The Door

by Angela Shrum - Not entered

There was a time, 
When my heart ached night and day. 
Your voice and face would haunt me, 
As I prayed for it to go away .
My emotions are starting to surround me, 
Laying deep inside my heart.
If only I would listen to my consceince, 
Repeating for me to part.
You say our life is over,
To shut and lock the door. 
Yet each time I try to close it, 
You stand there as if you want more. 
But now I look at you..with tears flowing strong, 
And I shut the door between us... 
as I walk off scared and alone. 
I've got to take this chance, 
So let me walk away. 
I pray God will grant the strength, 
Throughout each and every day.

Reason for writing:

    My husband and I were going through some rough times. It helped 
me deal with this all. Everything is GREAT now though. *smile*
