They said to let it go, The whisperes did. I let it go like they said. You still rub salt in to my wounds. But progress is made in small steps. And I realised something; One never truly moves on Until the anger has made way For acceptance and reconciliation. And surely, when I see The lisence plates One white,one yellow And a steerling wheel on the wrong side I no longer think of you. I think of a sketchy Scot I got to know on a poetry site. I smirk and wonder what he is up to. My anger made way for nicer associations. And when I smell acrylic adhesive I no longer think of you; I think of the bus ride I took every morning To go work for a dentist. And when I walk through the lobby I wonder what the girls are up to. Healing takes time... But much like the Yin It moves slowly and diligently. I take a deep breath... It feels like I can breathe again... It feels like Love is kinder Slower and more gentle with me This time around... His energy is sweet But not co-dependent. And it's ok, if it doesn't work out. You are lovely to watch Even on a bad day. Fear has made way For respect and reverance.

His Yin
They said to let it go, The whisperes did. I let it go like they said. You still rub salt in to my wounds. But progress is made in small steps. And I realised something; One never truly moves on Until the anger has made way For acceptance and reconciliation. And surely, when I see The lisence plates One white,one yellow And a steerling wheel on the wrong side I no longer think of you. I think of a sketchy Scot I got to know on a poetry site. I smirk and wonder what he is up to. My anger made way for nicer associations. And when I smell acrylic adhesive I no longer think of you; I think of the bus ride I took every morning To go work for a dentist. And when I walk through the lobby I wonder what the girls are up to. Healing takes time... But much like the Yin It moves slowly and diligently. I take a deep breath... It feels like I can breathe again... It feels like Love is kinder Slower and more gentle with me This time around... His energy is sweet But not co-dependent. And it's ok, if it doesn't work out. You are lovely to watch Even on a bad day. Fear has made way For respect and reverance.
