She had her fill
of all those
that held on
to the past
old wounds and broken records
as if they were precious jewels
that held old grudges as revenge
captured and imprisoned
the guilty and the innocent
as if they were
one and the same
that held on
to chains and reins
rules and regulations
ties that binded
so good and tight
that they just about choked
all the sponateuous life out
She had her fill
of all that fear
that didn’t have any place
rhyme or reason
in the life she intended to have
And she just decided
that she wouldn’t
give it a second thought
another minute
any more room of her soul
because, after all,
She had her fill
and she wasn’t about to
become one of those
that held on
when it was time
to let go
