Someday, in some way,
we'll learn to grow apart...
GRACEFULLY.

Someday, in some way,
we'll fall out....
just like
we fell in.

Someday, in some way,
we'll find better ways
to fill our voids.
We'll discover  that
autumn is  spring...
REDEFINED.
And that
we too like a candle
need to burn in our pain
to  ILLUMINATE
those like us.

Someday, NOT today,
we'll be happier with each other...
as memories...
than as people.

Someday, NOT today,
we'll shake hands as acquaintances,
MERE acquaintances....
with 'no-longer-intense' memories...
between us.

But.............
That someday ain't gonna be today...............
Neither is it gonna be in eternity.

Today, we've chosen to let go
because we've realised...
the HARD WAY... that
WE aren't worth holding on anymore.
I don't know about you,
but...
Today, I'm lost...
lost in the ocean of my AGONY....
blindly rowing till I find
an island in myself .......
I haven't inhabited .....
YET.

And SOMEday , NOT today, NOT in eternity...
I'll get there...
I PROMISE...
not YOU...
but MYSELF.
