Rest in Peace Once Again
Past memories stir every once in awhile
Gut wrenching sickness stirs
Conversations awaken buried sorrows that once were piled
'pon a hill near unsteady waters sits your stone, I stand before it my eyes a blur
Wishing I could rid of it for once in all
My heart ripes open I hear it weep, not because I care
You moved on like nothing ever happened, while I'm still stumble and fall
I can't figure out how this all boils down to being labelled as fair
Those who knew you well, also of what you put us thru they moved on with time
Your temper flew into raging fits, your words and hands flew pain stricken blows
I was the one who was always to blame, you ran free hiding from your crimes
`pon the cold gray slab, ever so quietly I place a single red rose
Trying not to arise a commotion tween the ravens, I pray someday for peace
Sun rays creep from behind the clouds, displays frozen within a frame
Is this a sign from above? Can I return to my life that moves on with a steady pace?
Your memories of abuse and dirty games, once again I lay to rest with your name
Hoping no one questions about you ever, so these memories never rise again
We all know the damage you done, for we live with the history of your scars
Kisses placed gentle on my forehead by the mid evenings rain
Before I turn to leave I gaze out 'pon the waters a moment to see the glistening stars.
May my haunting past forever rest in peace.
