Awakening

Callously, you reduced me to tears
Making me face unfathomable fears

Forcing me then, to carry on
Wondering what, became of our bond

Thinking all along, that we were perfectly secure
It’s then, that you departed, leaving sorrow for me to endure

So, you went on living, without a backwards glance
Causing me to remain, in a steady somber trance

Then, one day I woke up, suddenly feeling new
Free of all the melancholy, that was caused by you

Relieved to be unburdened, of all that extra weight
Now, looking back on everything, I see you weren’t so great!

Although this deals with a hurtful situation, the ending indicates freedom, validation and thus is very encouraging and uplifting. Thank you for sharing, May. Love and best wishes,

Regis

it is such an awesome feeling when we embrace ourself
and the importance of our own path
it takes 2 people to be in any relationship
& only one to end it for any reason they so choose
and in this it is a grand feeling to let go of ole baggage
no matter what the weight may be
I am so glad you are free from the "somber trance" <---Love That!
Peace & Continued Happiness!!
