Here is another. I hope you like it. I may play with this some more and word things more elegantly, I spent an hour at lunch. It is what I have been going through.

.

Uninvited spark calls to the past,
Here, see it come, I hope it won't last,
Spiralling down, grief comes with a blast,
Emotional flooding, complete with a gasp.

Tears, they come, why does it hurt so,
It is all too much, please can you go,
Shoulders are shaking but starting to slow,
My mind says again, I still have to know.

Subsiding, thoughts start to reduce,
Once again, there's nothing to deduce,
Protective cogs move and click into place,
Feelings go numb, emotions make space.

Breathing once more, it's over again,
Calmness is spread, goodbye to the pain,
Perhaps next time, we'll find the lost key,
Torturing myself, we'll just have to see.

Burnout be gone, you're not my best friend,
There must be a way, my mind needs to mend,
Digging away, I've now found what I seek,
Hold on tight, please fingers don't leak.

Uninvited spark calls me once more,
Here it comes, I wait by the door,
Here dear mind, the key I have found,
The past must at last, lie in the ground.

Terms with the past I wish to sign,
Or at least an agreement that's mostly benign,
Please give me freedom, to move on alone,
For a new kingdom, I need a new throne.

.

I feel at peace, it's clear to see,
Although I wobble, oh to be free,
I think this time, there's really a chance,
My ghosts banished with my new lance.

I do like it, very descriptive. Have you really never written poetry before? If not, it appears I've inspired you to find a hidden talent!
