next chapter

 

Another beginning without you

 

I’m getting good at this

 

I’m starting to learn important things

 

Like trust no one

 

Because every being is selfish

 

And now I’m here

 

Starting over yet again

 

Breathe in breathe out

 

Let the good things roll in

 


 

I see your slips

 

Are you hearing my voice at night?

 

Am I reminding you that you made this choice?

 

Sadly this all your doing

 

And I’ll admit I didn’t think I’d feel you again

 

But I see you slips

 

And I screenshot them as keepsakes

 

Of what could have been

 


 

 

To say I’m happy now

 

Well, it’s a broad statement

 

I see you’re trying darling

 

I appreciate the efforts

 

But I don’t feel that lighted wire that used to wrap us

 

I can’t find that drive we once had

 

Maybe you need a license

 

Or maybe I need to take the train home
