This is your journey to
where you stand...
It has been long and
uneasy
Filled to the brim with
everything that is life
Memories linger
Thoughts turn
Footsteps move forward
Lessons learned become
realizations made
That you are bigger
than these moments
And that your life
shall not be framed by the faults within another
You make this choice
now
To forgive...
Not for their sake, but
for yours
Because like chains
shackling you to your past
You will no longer
pollute your heart, body, and life...
With bitterness or
anger...
The time has come to
remember yourself before them
To honor the path ahead
Remembering that
sometimes we let go of people without even noticing...
The mind stops thinking
of them everyday
You stop waiting for
them to reply
Or that same old
connection to be made...
You stop allowing them
to take up so much space in your life
You learn to move out
from that place in the past
The pull to be in the
present
Going about your daily
life
Brings motion and
purpose
You stop expecting them
to come back in that final moment with an apology
And the missing pieces
that were never found
You accept that they
are no longer part of everything you do
You simply let them
go...
Allowing what has been
fade from sight
Forgiveness is
validation
And permission
Because hate is just
another way of holding on
And they don't belong
here anymore...
