For those who haven't read this before and would care to comment on it ;)

<font color=white>Page by page she reads them through
Funny what the past can do
Memories jolted from within
Dwelling in them seems a sin

Lingering over every word
Knowing she must look absurd
Eyes remain engrossed by them
Hard against her heart they ram

Breathing hard to ward off woe
Shakes her head to fight her foe
Sighing, closing eyes to rest
Limits now put to the test

Letters, diaries now perused
Pain from scar-free wounds then oozed
Reaching out to fetch the bin
Careful not to make a din

Scissors poised to make the cut
Hearing soundless cries of "But..."
Gritting teeth, she lifts a page
Conscious of the sacrilege

What if regret should haunt her?
Wincing at the soft murmur
Shreds them in a thoughtless daze
No more does she at them gaze

Aching hands seek brief respite
Fingers now rent on with spite
Burden lifts as hours pass
Could she be a happier lass?

Freed from death grip of the past
Now it's time to steer the mast
Present, future seem more gay
Time to face a brand new day.</font>

Mind telling me why, dizzy? :D Just curious... [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

It's very... Mistral. I can see who wrote it ;)

i picture lost love in it or a lost lover its very good.

Oh wow, now I can't escape Legolas' detection [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

Thanks, dizzy [img]smile.gif[/img] I did go through that, and it certainly wasn't easy ;)

i see. Sorry about that.

No worries, dizzy [img]smile.gif[/img] Writing actually helped to get it out of my system and anyway, I should move on after such a long time :D

doh, I knew you wrote it too, :D it is just the elf had first chance. but anyways, thats so wonderful, Mistral, glad that you had come to terms with the past, it is a soul-lifting experience once you are free of it. nevertheless, it guides your future. well, good job my friend.

and a wonderful poem it is

Thank you, 250 :D Have a good time yourself and see you around [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]
