Again and again we always go
Back to our old habits, oh please dear no!
What you did to me made me grow
I'm not the same person, just so you know

"Old habits die hard"

Yes, indeed.

Every time somebody leaves, I try really hard to let go of that person and dump memories of "us" in an invisible "moving on" box. But, as much as I wanted to forget that chapter of my life, I always end up reminiscing and wishful thinking that somewhere (somehow) that person is having even the littlest thoughts of me. What's worse is I always crash and burn whenever that person notices me (likes a post, sends a text message, etc). I always go back to thinking of what if's and what might have been's.

I believe that there's always a way to end these. I've been here so many times and I think I learned a lot already. I may get back to some nasty habits but I'll never be that same person you know. Your lies and deception may have destroyed a piece of me but at the same time, they made me grow and appreciate other beauties of life even more.
