Hurt

The hurt is deep but silent

It grabs you so tight

You try to resist the past temptations

That lurk like an old friend

Where the past and future are in a race

Time can’t forget the choices made

Life has it’s purpose

To bring forth it’s precious gifts

Closing the last door to the past

Opening a window to let hope in

The wind of change comes by

Leaving not only strength but wisdom

Looking in the mirror and see

A glimmer of a smile

A new day has made

As the hurt starts fading away
