Forgive,
forget,
heartbreak's only antidote.
Unto chains of despair
I became one
with solid ground.
Only to realize,
if the world was an oyster
than I must be a pearl.
Liberation struck me like a train,
abrupt, showing no mercy,
leaving the tracks a little messy.
Indulging someone else is going to feel
like conducting
after a life altering derailment.
Uncomfortable,
unsafe.
Nevertheless,
I'll bottle up my remedy,
with the intention of your freedom,
but with the hope
that you'll always remember
your Annabelle Lee.
It's time to let go.
