Regret.

My blue and beige walls
surround me,
I lay in my bed.

Telling you to leave
was out of my place,
and I felt bad,
but I chained
these unspoken feelings
in a deep dark chest, far away
to the depths of my mind.
Ever now they shake
trying to break free.
But the past is behind me.

I am new again.
I am no longer chained away
I am as free as a soaring bird.

As long as I chain
those thoughts away,
they no longer consume me.
My mind is not polluted like a factory
that has gray soot hanging over it.
I am new.
I still love you.
No matter how bad each word hurt,
I promise to love you.

Even through our most difficult times.
We are free from our hurt.
We are free from our abusive thoughts.
We are free from our inner most fears.
I love you.
Always.
