1.
You wait…
You wait for people to change.
But, people don’t change.
Not if they don’t want to.
Learn to read the signs.
Save your energy
For someone who deserves it.
2.
When you had enough,
you will know.
You will know when to move on.
You will know when you are done fighting.
You will know it wasn’t you.
You tried everything,
but it wasn’t you.
You can’t keep those who don’t want to stay.
3.
And I left…
With the thought he would
come after me.
But he never did.
I was nothing to him.
He let me go, as if our time
together meant nothing to him.
So, I knew then,
what I know now.
He was never mine to keep.
4.
Someone who comes back,
will stay and fight for you.
They will always fight for you,
if, they see you in their future.
Anyone who gives up the fight
they weren’t worth fighting for.
Walk away.
5.
So, it takes years I’ve heard…
To forget someone you loved
for a long time.
It takes, however, seconds
to make a decision.
The decision of letting go.
Of moving on.
Of letting yourself free.
6.
Observe people.
Their words and actions will make sense
when they are genuine.
When the two don’t match up,
they are letting you know
their true colours.
Observe.
Be ready.
7.
Promises…
Broken ones.
Never really fulfilled ones.
“I will make it up to you”
kind of promises are the worst.
They can really break you,
because they give you hope.
False hope.
They never really make it up to you.
8.
I might be broken right now.
I might be falling apart.
Make no mistake,
I will get up.
9.
My tears will dry.
The hurt you have given me
will be healed with time.
Cause, time heals all wounds.
Every damage my soul has been through
will slowly heal.
And I might never be the same again,
but the lesson will be learned.
That, not everyone who leaves
will return.
10.
You have given me a lot…
Pain
Mystery
Love
Hope
I shall keep the pain
to remind me that
everything else
was false.
