How can I

Advertisements

put someone else in front of you

when all I keep doing is having dreams of you.

What do they mean when  I know the possibility of them becoming true is 100% not possible.

And I’m fine about that because you’re not on the table anymore and I can put whoever

I want above you and have them erase the memories of you so quickly.

I would be like you never exist to me and I’d be fine with that.

I have come around so much since you’ve been gone and I don’t doubt the things I do or say anymore.

No sadness always around me like a bad mood you just can’t shake after someone just ruined your sunny day.

I had those feelings for you but now I have those feelings for myself for I choose to love myself so when the right person comes around I will know who is worth my time.

And that I’m worth whoever comes my way but it’s always up to me if I want to explore the possibilities of it becoming more than it could be.

 

You were always my partner in crime

You were never scared of the things in this life.

That others feared like where would they end up in life

would they ever amount too much in the end.

You always knew that no matter what you end up during you would

do it to the best of your abilities.

You and I went on such great adventures that those memories will last

a lifetime for me.

Daily Prompt: Doubt

Advertisements

I don’t want you to creep into my mind and mess up

the good things I have planned out.

Everything seems to going great and then one bad day

and you’re in my mind and doubt you can turn everything from 100% a sure thing

to not sure if that decision was the right fit for me.

I don’t want to doubt everything good that’s going on with me

for what life would that be.

Would it be a fulfilled life?

Or one that made everything hard to deal with?

I want to be hopeful that everything will work out in the end and not doubt that a storm is just around the corner.

Or that my luck will run out.

I want to feel that this moment I’m living in is just the beginning of something great soon to come.

I’m hopeful today and every day to come for doubt will not break me, it may make me stop and wonder for a second but I will move on and believe that things will get better.
