Erin's Echo: ...let it PAIN on me

~tears fall as I look at me in the mirror...stained glass image reflection of self~

Thought I was immune to hurt

Please, God, just numb me!

I don’t want to feel this pain

Again it’s throbbing inside of me!

My headache is matching my heartbeat

A hole is left where he should be

But countless time he’s shown me I’m not his Queen

Well, I dethrone myself from your kingdom

Your laws are unjust and promises are false

I cannot fight your war anymore

My warrior days are over!

I have to fight for me!

I’ve cried so much; my eyes are blurry

But I see clearly…I feel strongly

I was taken for granted and I wasn’t appreciated

My truth was turned lies

Needles were stuck in my eyes

Don’t numb me, God

Let me feel this pain…this hurt

Make it worse this time far greater than last

I’ve bought so many lessons, I’m bankrupt on love

Baptizing myself in reality

I want to see the Black Dove

Take flight

Signifying the dawn of a brand new me

Don’t numb me, God

Let it pain on me!

My appetite is gone

My heart is broken

My head is crowded

But my judgment is solid!

I will cry away my sorrow

Grieve a life that never really was

Then I will take flight and accept the reality that

I can’t change anyone but ME

And I will embrace it

I will tango

Save the last dance for me!

Painfully Beautiful

a poem from Poet's Paradise by Erin's Echo

Musical Inspiration for today Tina Turner...I don't care who's wrong or right; I don't really wanna fight no more!
