Moonlight secret .

As she sat in the darkness head pressed to her knees body and mind aching . She had held on so long to her past . Anger and regret and anxiety had gnawed her to the bone. How much more could she afford to expose .
Holding on is a man eater it takes its toll . It manipulates now as it has you in a choke hold of yesterdays.  She slipped off the bed and tiptoed to the window . Opened it and felt the cold brush her skin and goosebumps set in and clarity . She found herself in the moonlight a secret shared to no reply . I promise I am surrendering my control and my arms and hands will embrace and unleash a fury of the unknown. The past is gone . I know . It was my heart that longed to stay . I  can’t go back I can only steer myself forwards into the now . I let go and her breath floated on those sounds on air outside as she caught herself from falling in the inside . She’s not going back her mind is free . It’s wasn’t her heart after all it was memories.
