Moving On

For far too long I have been in the past.

I wonder if now is the time I move on.

From the memories that held me,

when I lay on my bed, with my eyes all teary.

From the moments that kept me alive,

when life felt dark and dreary.

You might wonder why

I would want to give up on such a gift.

Well, doesn’t feel like it’s there anymore.

Maybe it didn’t evolve into the present.

Maybe it got lost.

Whatever happened, all that remains now

is the torn curtain

that once brushed away my loneliness.

That is still innocently trying to keep me away

from the pain changing-time has inflicted on my heart.

And from the present

that knows me not anymore.

One thing has defied change though:

My love.

Which I don’t know what to do with.

Throw it away? -It might kill me.

Keep it? – It might destroy even the remains.
