There is

No reason

Why things are falling apart!

Other than laziness and lack of communication.

The train is not moving and people keep coming to get on only to be turned away and go on another train.

I wish to get off too and not come back for the same problem is always here.

I don’t want to do it anymore but I don’t want the headache either.

To leave is the only thing running through my mind right now.

To stay is not even a option as I realize it’s just one more snake trying to bit me in a new location.

Nothing new of different about these sneaks and talks.

No point of faking happiness because it’s not what I feel coming to this place.

Remember

when we first met 

two people just trying to get through the day not  trying to make a friend. 

Then we shared a laugh and from then we became so close and connected. 

And there was no doubt in my mind that we would continue to be there for each other and we were.

There wasn’t a moment that I didn’t share with you and so you became more than a friend to me but you became another sister to me and looking out for you came second nature to me. 

So many moments spent together it was like life was good and we were riding on success with only little bumps here and there. 

And now we spend more time apart and the hole you left behind is small but it feels like I’m losing more oxygen everyday that it is left open. 

But, some how I stumble through life with a purpose and even though you are not a main part of my life anymore I am still working hard to do what I need and want to do. 

Maybe one day that hole will close up with either us talking again or me finally just letting go and appreciating the moments and lessons we learned together my sister.

I’ve said

my peace and now it’s time for you to let me go. 

The memories float away from me as the years pass. 

And, yes from time to time something flashes through my mind but I don’t miss you anymore. 

So I walk away from the things that remind me of the things no longer in my life. 

Sometimes when it’s been one of those days I catch myself thinking about how I miss you. 

But, I know the reason your no longer apart of my life and I’ve accepted that truth a longtime ago. 

The things that I thought were important and would last forever was quickly smashed that night. 

So many pieces that I had to clean up and forget about for today is the present. 

Holding on to too much would drive one crazy and the hole that is barely there would be too big to bear alone. 

I cared about you and I loved you but, the peace in the long run is the fresh air I breath now.

No time to looking back

anymore for I have new hope that this will workout

for me in the end.

When the sun is shining brightly from the beginning and the peaceful feeling is washing over me today.

I know that things will look and be good for me and those around me.

I don’t have time to look back at the things I missed out on or the things in the present that are not apart of my life.

I live for the now and if you’re not apart of my present than that’s on you not me and I smile knowing that I made the best out of what I had.

And the possibilities are just starting and future holds so much for me but I’m going to focus on the present and light up everything that comes my way.

Because, this year is the battle of a lifetime and I won’t stop fighting.

Even when my hope gets low, I will just rely on my faith to carry me through it no matter what.

For I don’t have time to look back when the most important things are right in front of me.

Goodbye

To the words that used to have meaning

to us.

Those words I can’t seem to understand now as they just seem to

be made of lies and a past I want to forget.

The memories of that day play on every time I fall asleep like a movie on pause it

just starts where I left off every time I have a moment of doubt.

But, I’m afraid  the pain is not enough some days to keep me away

I have to keep talking myself out of doing this all over again.

Like my mind has forgotten what I went through and I don’t regret saying goodbye or thinking of you sometimes.

But, I know  I’m in such a better place that I would not ever go back and do it all over again because If I hadn’t fallen down so badly.

I wouldn’t have gotten the strength to get myself back up and realize there is more to me than meets the eye and this time is my time.

And, even though I may seem lonely, I am never alone and in the end I am someone who won’t let anyone walk all over them again.
