A Random Burst of Writing #8-Death (knowing me, you might want to skip this one)

Death.
It's a word, a word that holds so much power.
So much heartbreak
But it's only a word.
A simple word. A short word.
A heavy word.
It weighed on my heart.
To lose a mother is heartbreak enough.
To lose a father is worse, somehow.
Especially when he is the only one that comforted me.
The only one that kept the sword in the sheath.
Forgiveness
It's a word, too.
A word that holds so much weight
But not in the same way as death.
Maybe that's what turned me into what I am now
Too much of the first.
Not enough of the second
Now I know that I'm giving myself even more of the first word.
That i’m killing
That I don’t let Forgiveness into my heart.
But I can’t stop
I’ve chosen the first way.
No turning back.
Not coming out.
Death
