Where have you gone?
I've missed you the last five years
It's been so long
but there are no more tears
My memory is vague
who are you again?
You've become so fake
can we stop trying to pretend?
I know your heart aches
although it may appear cold and hard
I know all those years of fighting
have pushed you so far
Stop apologizing
quit putting others first
that was how you lost yourself
let's not make things worse
So who are you again?
remind me for I've forgotten
aren't you an independent woman?
Aren't you a wonderful friend?
Where has your ambition gone?
What about all of your plans?
Let's piece together this puzzle
it requires no man
I'm beginning to remember
you were gone for so long
How could I let this happen?
I am trying to be strong
I will not hide you anymore
whether I'm one or half of two
for you are me and I am sure
that I will always be you

Geez... I remember feeling like this a handful of years ago now. It's an awful feeling, really - an inner-voice-screaming that you took a wrong turn somewhere along the line. But, you're right. We really don't ever change all that much. Somewhere inside us our true self exists, waits... and the dreams we had for ourselves, our lives, never die. No matter how long it has been since one lost sight of them, it is and ever will be possible to find a way back to them.
Know that it is possible, always. And honestly, because of what you wrote here - I'd suggest your half way there already. : )
Follow your heart. It will light the way.

| I think we've all come to this place in our lives, or at least everyone will sooner or later. It's strange, but somewhat comforting and almost nostalgic to rediscover yourself, and start to find out who you were, who you are now, and who you will be going forward. Experiences like these just mold us and help us grow, and it's nice to see that you've put it all on paper, it was a pleasant read. Thanks for posting. |
