realization

yeah, right!
i'm close to "recuperation".
enough of those
drowning-in-my-own-tears moments.

go away! leave me alone.
i want to say:
i beg you to walk away from me
but will you?

out of sight, out of my mind
i heard this a thousand times
but will it work on me?
i really hope so!

a closed chapter
that's how we should be
things are not always what they seem
guess i believe that now.

let go and move on
easier said than done
yet the most sensible thing to do
when there is no reason to hold on.

until then...
goodbye is not the term
i wish you well
and i hope someday you realize your lost.
