i'll let go.

[Shuddr2Think]

i awoke this morning
strangely...a phone call
interrupting lucid dreams abruptly
and
with the feeling
of
finally being
over you
and in a flash like a spark
that weight of years on my shoulders
that empty space inside me
were gone
and altho i am moving on
and moving forward
i am not going to forget
forgetting is what hurts the most
because it always seems to make me
remember and
regardless of our past
or your present
my future is indefinitley
and will constantly be
shaped
by you
for better or worse
and
in a few words less than this
with a slow exhale
and a realization of the truth
i'll let go.

this was excellent.

i am not going to forget
forgetting is what hurts the most
this is something i've been trying to do myself. let go. i'm tired of letting my past dictate my future. i want to just.. start over. have the weight of it all disappear.
its so hard. i hope i can be as strong as you. you make me want to give it my all.

God this was absolutely amazing (as per usual).

regardless of our past
or your present
my future is indefinitley
and will constantly be
shaped
by you
This really struck a chord with me. It's so true. However much we try and deny it, however much we try and ignore it, we need to face the fact that the people and experiences of our past will continue to affect our thoughts and actions.
Thank you for showing me that accepting my past and not trying to deny its importance, is the only way I'll be able to let go and get on with my future.

I found realizing you are finallly over someone, is when it hurts the most.
Knowing that you are so close to someone, even to the littlest thing, you find yourself not ever wanting someone to get that close, ever again. Hurt worse, how we don't want to forget, but we have too!

that weight of years on my shoulders
true spoken words....I like that!
