Post Break Up

6.8.12

I’ve sat with you time and time again.
Feeling your presence.
Your arms of comfort bringing me peace.

But the ruins are forming and the monuments are crashing.
Falling away into the sand with destruction in their wake.
I see the winding paths.
Oh the many possibilities that entail my future.
Such uncertainty rips terror through my very heart.
Speared and broken I lay with the remains of my past.

So I take the shambles and stand on my own two feet.
I may stand in defeat but I’ve always got something up my sleeve.
This time my plan will carry through.
I’m not immortal but I’ll walk forward.
Fear of the end sets me in motion to push on.

I’ve ending everything with you.
All the pain you’ve inflicted I couldn’t take.
So know that I loved you. I followed your way.
But sometimes we’ve got to leave the nest and turn away.
I’m sorry to have gone but I think it’s for the best.
Following my heart, and leading with my mind.

I turn and run.
Run. Run. Run.
The darkness encloses but I’ve been blinded before.
Run.
Take the reins of this life.
Run.
Blackness consumes.
Run.
Onward I step.
