Let Us.

by Megann Lee   Apr 8, 2007


Let us go back, back to when it wasn't OK.
Pulling down that dusty locked up box.
A simple turn of the key and the memories will flee.
Take a breath, let's sort these things out.

I'm by your side, all will be fine.
Take your time nothing is as simple as it seems.
Don't hurry the process along.
Good will come from this; you'll see.

I can't promise you, that relief will come right then.
Things like this take your time.
No one likes to dwell on the bad of the past.
Push through it to get to the future of happiness.

Take a breath it's all been sorted.
Turn the key locking all the new memories in.
Place it back where it'll be hidden.
Let us step forward, moving ahead in our lives.

    Amazing meaning you put behind this poem. I read it over a few times, and I was impressed on exactly how much meaning you put into one poem. Certainly and interesting topic... I liked how you put the idea of harbored mishaps of memories, into a imagry form of a locked box.
