I spent three weeks stewing in anger
Sweating you out of my pores
And today the fever broke
But my body still aches from the chills
I’m exhausted from having and losing you.
But now I see this doesn’t have to be my failure alone.
I am not the heroine of this tale
Just as you are no villain
We are two people
Who choose two different paths.
And when I strain I can still see the light where our path split
The lamppost of blissful ignorance
I spent the weekend with no phone camping and meeting new people. It was the push I needed to see the light at the end of this tunnel. And while I am sad at least the fury and denial are gone.
