I was never the one to
fix you
I am not your mistakes
Nor am I the sole
creator of your decisions made
I am I and you are
you...
The power is yours
The influence was never
mine
Even though the lines
of definition blurred, clarity was always mine
And everything and more
was for you...
As much as I gave of
myself
Control and intent was
yours
My caution and doubt
knew this
Pieces and partial
bread crumbs were laid to follow
A grand design to make
flecks of dust shine like gold
Stories were told with
true belief, only because you lacked conviction for reality
Allowing eyes drawn to
conclusions led
No correction was given
to the lost
Time was stolen...
Compassion never given
Love was taken...
Trust was held hostage
to the lines of drama being shown
The marching line was
towed
Abandonment was
misdirection
All until I was needing
you more than you needed me...
The reminder was given
Words are free, its how
we use them that cost us
And I refuse to be
broke...
Releasing myself from
the embrace of you
There is nothing owing
and no debt to be collected
Only a single solitary
goodbye given
This is my right
My allowance and growth
within
The choice of my life
without you in it
Here lies the marker, a
gravestone in time
Where you and I cease
to exist...
Love, friendship, and
trust buried with peace
I've forgiven myself
The rest will be
forgotten by time
I've learned my lesson
of you
Now... I live passed
it.
