Moving on

Leaving the past behind

I miss you... Let me rephrase I missed you. And there's nothing wrong with that. But I can't sit around anymore reminiscing, I can't wait for you to come back. I know you won't. I know the chance you would even read this is slim. But I am not writing this...

My Parachute

You were my parachute.

You were my parachute,Always opening, rescuing mejust before I hit the ground.  Now, it seemsI am free fallingNothing is catching me this time. When will I hit the ground? You were my whiskey,When I had nothing but a needSo it seems,even whiskey goes bad....

Can you not see, what you do to meYou've taken away all I used to beA fire that once burned so bright Now there's only darkness in the night The tears continue to flow each dayYou persist on pushing us awayA good mom and loving wifeIs all I ever wanted to...

I had to let you goI liked you more than you will ever knowI told myself I wouldn't tell you and I didn't I acted like I didn't careThe last time I saw youYou acted like me and I acted like youYou listened when I spokeWas it all a game or just a jokeYou g...

I hurt in so many different waysToo many to ever speak ofAt times, the pain is too muchBut I smile with tears in my eyesAnd never say a wordI want to scream and stomp my footI feel my heart is breakingI cry silent tears But say everything is okThe distanc...

I went away todayDriving in my carI thought of you against meHow warm and strong you are I went away todayTalking on the phoneGripped by those blue velvet eyesYet I was all alone I went away todayGoing through the mailThinking how you tie your tieYour col...

I tell myself it's good to let goBut I know I'm fooling myselfRemembering the pain of a love gone wrongTrying to move forward day by dayAs I close my eyes I see the one I once lovedTrying to start a new daySo I look deep into myself Gathering the strength...

I look back at youSee you standing there, no appealYou're looking at the past meNeither of what we see is realI'm staring at a ghostSomeone I'm pushing awayYou see who you thought you leftNeither the same as that dayNo more heartbreakNo more tearsNot for...

Herself

Before she knew it, Janie found herself in one of her former hiding spots.

Janie turned onto the old gravel road and stopped. The old cruel memories she left thirty years ago came flooding back and made her almost turn around and head back to New York to beg for her job she had just quit a week ago. At that time, she felt it was...

No More Words

A woman gains the courage to leave a toxic environment.

They had nothing to say to each other. After all of the backstabbing, infidelity, name calling, and beatings, she'd had enough of his shit. She looked in the mirror at her busted bottom lip, chipped front teeth, black eye, and the splint on her nose. She...
