Moving On. And On

You live

You breathe, You feel

You awaken, You chase

You get hurt, You hurt back

You unlearn, You relearn

You think you know, You think you find it

You feel things out, You open up

You love

You kiss, You touch

You dance, You laugh

You feel complete, You feel reborn

You have your cake, You eat it too

You give everything, You give too much

You withdraw, You withhold

You break

You lose yourself, You lose them

You lose control, You lose it all

You think you knew better, You think this was different

You think you’re friends, You think rules don’t apply

You get blindsided, You get cold shouldered

You no longer fit, You don’t matter

You hate

You think you had something, You think you can go back

You don’t know what love is, You do as you’re told

You shut down, You shut out

You can’t sleep, You can’t eat

You don’t see, You don’t hear

You feel everything, You understand nothing

You process

You want what’s best, You hope they never feel it

You want them to know, You want to say something

You want to be heard, You want to be seen

You write it down, You throw it out

You want the change, You paid the price

You want to forgive, You will never forget

You leave

You put away the old, You seek the new

You change the scenery, You change perspective

You reflect, You release

You learn, You grow

You feel calm, You feel different

You find what you’re looking for, You find yourself

You die

You do it again
