I cried leaving this all behind. I loved this hell that I'm now trapped in. Then I left. I left because it was the right thing to do Because I knew I would find myself along the way And now... Finally home. Finally free to have my life back And I really don't want it. For just a second there For one moment I knew what it meant to be alive Was it really worth knowing? Now all is empty. Nothing meaningful Is it really better to have loved and lost than never loved at all? Because for once, I loved life I loved each morning Each hour Every person I saw I loved them I was pretty happy before I guess I wasn't. But I thought I was. And so I just sit here Complaining to the internet I'm lost I'm confused I'm like everybody else out there who has a blog I pretend that I have some direction in this haze. Here's a hint: That's a lie. Instead I'm going to end this poem And realize I still have no ideas No direction Not a clue what path I should take To find happiness And I'll just be another girl sitting at her kitchen table Broken

Was it worth it?
