Compassion by Peg

Compassion by Peg
I said good-bye to the past today
I sent it packing and on its way
A voice did warn
Of a path that's torn
And there it is best not to stay

I said no more in a stronger voice
I had too really, I have no choice
For if I remain
Then all stays the same
And the present will no longer rejoice

I said good-bye to the haunting tales
I blacked-out monsters and their maddening wails
Only brightness I see
Towering over me
And today I shall take off my veil - Peg

I love this poem, Peg. I retyped it here so I'd always have it near me. Hope you don't mind.
