How do you mourn for someone
who treated you badly?
The memories of the times
make you sad.
You try to cherish the good
and forget the bad.
However, the past
won’t let go.
It holds you tight
and lets you know
that what happened
long ago
you’ll never let go.
You’re left with
reconciling the good
with the bad
and remembering a life
you once had.
