ERASING THE PAIN

by Samantha Lowe - Scorpio

Little girl with the sad blue eyes-
Be strong
Forgive and forget the past
Walk away;

Little girl with the heart split in two-
Dismiss the abuse
Hide away the lies
Forget the abandonment;

Little girl with the weight of the world upon her back-
Look past the deaths
Forgive the betrayal
Wipe away the tears;

Little girl with the forbidden dreams-
Erase the past.

And yet it isn't so easy
Ripping the page out of history
Erase the past...
I can't.

Reason for writing:

    People are always telling me "oh just forget about it all. Make amends and move on". They just can't see that it isn't as easy as that. That life isn't something that you could just throw away and forget. Problems in life are like weeds, they got fed by the rain and the sun, and continue to grow in the worst imagineable places.
