Repetition

by @LA024

You let this happen… again and again. You promise, yourself you wont let it happen again. but it does, it always does. Why? You ask yourself, why is it just so hard to let go? You’re counting down the months of this year, this very year, this exact year. You put all your hope, all your prayers into this. May, Its almost here. This is when you’ll find it, this is when its supposed to happen. What you want, what you think you want. Will it be everything you’ve wished? Will it be more? Will it be less? Less, You don’t want less but sometime life - Life cheats us, cuts us short of everything we want. Life, is taking all the good I have left in me. Life, is taking me away from myself. Life, is the thing that passes you by if you don’t make the right choices but ends too short not giving you enough time. Time, the very thing you have an infinite amount of but never, never, ever enough. Enough, You’re hoping you do everything right. Right, for the ones around you. Do it the way they didn’t, to see if you can get further than they did. To see if you’ll be happier than they are. Because to be enough means to not fail them, to not fail yourself. In the end You're left with no more time, Life is at its end. Maybe you had longer than the rest or even less Was it all worth the pain? The same pain that gives life, is the same pain that takes it. Was it worth not being happy? You’d sacrifice your happiness to find happiness.
