Onward

I hate that something that feels so good ends in so much pain.

I could hold on and cling to that last bit of comfort,

but I know that I'll just wake up with that pain again.

I can only fool myself for so long.

One day I'll wake up and realize what I've done to the both of us for my comfort.

Maybe it's today.

I want it to be.

I want to hold on and feel you still,

but I can't.

There is nothing left to hold on to.

It's gone.

I'm letting go of the shadow.

I can recall my reality.

I need to remember what I want.

What I need.

My only regret is time wasted,

precious moments I'll never get back.

Spent all for naught.

But life goes on.

I'm picking myself up and moving forward.

Unhindered.

Free.
