Poetry

I should

Be asleep but here I am wasting no time to jump into a new post to write.

As if this word waste was all I was waiting for.

I know my life is different from others and my story is inside me hidden away because the truth is who can I trust it with.

I’ve wasted time telling it to people who I thought mattered for they too to leave.

I could be broken and have trust issues, but I don’t want to waste my time not getting out there and experiencing it all.

Yes, the way I will go about it may seem like I’m taking a long way and I’m wasting time.

But I want to see it all, and I can’t afford to waste a second on things that don’t matter anymore.

I know I’m growing, and we’re drifting apart, and yet again, I am alone, but the time we spent together was not wasted.

I will treasure our memories, but now I must not waste my time down memory lane as I have much to see and feel, and I hope you wish me luck on this new adventure.
