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
