The Purge

Today I am going to cut out part of my heart
For it is poisoned by a hope unrealized

I am going to void a portion of my soul
For the transaction I invested in was rejected by fate

I am evicting a memory that block my vision
For the obstruction has blinded me long enough

I relinquish the power I gave to the unworthy
For he could not bear the burden of being loved

I forgive his ignorance for he lacks fortitude of the soul
But I will never forget his indifference to the pain he caused me

With these words I purge you from my life
Sweet tainted lord of illusion be free to dwell in your world without me
As you go on I pray you will find the same peace that I seek out by letting you go
