I wrote all that we weren’t
but wished I had chosen for instead
I wrote down all of my sorrow
for what in my heart I didn’t follow
Turn it into a new memory instead

maybe a future one yet to be made by me

I do not live with any regrets, no hate
nor any pity things as revenge

The only thing someone can blame me for
is moving on from an unhealthy situation
quickly and no words said

The truth is, grateful is all I can feel
even when things turn out bad
it’s my responsibility to me
to see my own flaws in every story
and make sure to be prepared
for another round as long as I am here

The rest is simply not on me

So I congratulate myself
to getting one step closer to a better path
Learning by lessons
I was still unaware I had
keep all that energy to myself
and change, grow into something better
holding still all in my heart
the hopes, dreams and wishes
for a greater tomorrow
