This is weird
So strange
I have been
And have not been
Thinking about you
About what I would say for days...
You enter my mind now and then
The most random of times.
Some thoughts are good
Memories and events from the past
Some thoughts are bad
It had been a year since I'd seen you last.
When I think of you and try to picture your face
I know time does not stop and images fade
Into the distance and haze.
I still haven't figured out what I'm saying
What it is I want you to hear...
Your steps we followed in passion
Not knowing the fears you keep
That is not my future
I will not be afraid to leap.
You gave your path to fears
Shy'd away from thoughts and dreams
The ones you would not seek.
You stopped
Never looking for you future
Unwilling to leave the past behind.
I have learned from you
Not to view the world from your eyes...
I can rejoice in my strength
Be the person I am
My quirks to shine like starts above.
I do not know what turns lie ahead
I know not all are mine alone
A journey to be had with love.
I am...
Excited for life to unfold
Right in front of us
Waiting to be pulled in near.
I am...
Joining the adventures that await
Oh the experiences we will have
Creating tales yet to hear.
I know what it is I am trying to say
What it is that I want you to hear...
Goodbye
I haven't been trying to hold on
Trying to keep you here.
I don't have to always remember you
I won't forget you either.
I am letting go of anger
Letting go of what I think you have done.
I am letting go of sadness
Letting go of what I think you should have done.
I will let the past stay where it should
I will lean in to the future
Most importantly
I will enjoy each and every moment
Right now
With an open heart and love.
