When you come full circle
Revolving doors can be painful
Watch for sharp corners that might deter you
That includes people and places too
Others lurk where you least expect them
Shut the doors behind you for those who stayed a while, but their time is up
They no longer play a role in your life
Be grateful they were there at all
Take that deep breath
You earned it
It took a lot out of you to reach this intersection and plateau
You crossed it
Know that you did, but don't revel in it for too long
It served its purpose andΒ down the road it will be a private smile that only you will recognize
Just remember this when you come full circle
You now know what matters the most, so take care of yourself
Those that will always be there for you are in reach even when you
are out of touch
Just look over your shoulder
As well as into your heart
When you come full circle
