About you

There are times lately

I begin to think about you

But now I remember

That past has been and gone

Thankfully I am finally moving on

Taking the lessons

And all of the memories with me

There was a sense before that I was

Immersed in this

Story of us

Nearly drowning under its weight

But the truth of how it felt

Was not always the story I lived by

In my head

Now I realize

I also honor your soul

We were just so different you and I

Satellites that came into each other’s orbit

Attracting and repelling like magnets

And when I fell

It was a necessary fall

There were fathoms to travel

To find my soul

So now when I think about you

It is no longer such a heavy load

Just a long and painful detour

On a path

I had to walk down

On a steep and winding road

To where my heart could feel

At last

Finally home
