It’s the beginning of the end
The end of an era
I can feel it. Can I do anything else? No. It’s not my choice.
This is the way it has to be
It was special. It couldn’t really be explained.
It was quite fast
A flash of brilliant sunlight
Before dark clouds shrouded everything
Something was given
Against all odds
I didn’t ask for it
But I treasured it
Taken away
I couldn’t stop it
Though I tried
It wasn’t mine to hold on to
I never really had it
It seems
Now it’s coming to close
Before my eyes
Slipping away with every second
As easily as that
No. It isn’t easy
It’s never easy when you’re not in control
And you don’t know why
But you’re not allowed to know why
Not allowed to mourn
Just get on with it
Move on
Wish for things to be different
Wish to redo
Wish to take it all back
Wish for forgiveness
Or wish none of it ever happened?
No. It happened
There were lessons
I can never stop being grateful
But because of that
There is no moving on
There is no forgetting
But then…………. How can I be free?
How can I change?
I can’t
My existence must be forgotten somehow
I have to forget
Though the voice inside says I never will…
