Moving On

Moving On

You're fading from my imagination 
I'm finally ready to let go 
Honey, you're not my priced possession 
I am no longer holding on 
I'm different now 
I need to do what's better for myself 
It's not some power play 
It's self respect 
And I'm not sorry that I'm leaving 
I won't apologize for who I am 
I can't believe I wasted all these years 
On something that was so depressing 
The sparkle in my eyes was drowned by the tears 
You left me broken on the floor obsessing 
Old habits die hard, I won't forget you 
I'm still stressing 
Still searching for your face in crowds 
But one of these days 
Your voice will be so faint so distant 
It will never fully go away 
The thing is that I wouldn't  listen 
And at the same time I would not resist 
I would just let it be there 
Like the darkness is a background to the stars 
This world... it needs such contrast 
One day I'll meet a stranger who'll be everything you never were 
I needed you to show me pain 
For him to teach me love

Deep seated emotion throughout this poem as the decision is made to find a new path !

This is a write many can relate to in a stressful world where relationships suffer due to the pressures of society and the expectations it creates.

Good write.

Wishing you the very best ! :)
