Shattered and Relieved
to realize
that what we had
was nothing more
than something small
and tragic.
Distressed and Smiling
to read the past
figure out the fact
that you are nothing.
I've wasted time
but not that much
having come to terms
with the word:
"enough."
Crushed and Invincible
I've been so bruised
that now I'm strong
And all I can do
is breathe and learn.
You're a fool
but so am I.
Otherwise I wouldn't cry.
You're wise.
I'll be wise too.
And walk away
avoid your eyes
until there's no more pain.
Destroyed but Rebuilding.
I may never forgive you
but I'm okay with that too.
Even if I do,
I will never be your friend.
So don't say hello.
We are no more than strangers.
Hurt but Happy.
It's a freeing feeling
knowing you've started healing
When you stop revolving around the sun.
And start living for yourself.
