Departure
As I sit here reminiscing about the past.
I realize that some things are just not meant to last.
Sometimes I wish we never met.
But then again, I know that life is full of disappointments, and I can't live with regret.
I have to move on and stand firm in my faith, no matter what they say.
I am grateful for another day.
Looking for peace within my heart.
After it has been torn apart.
Its hard to imagine a fresh start.
In fact, I know that happiness and joy will find me again.
No matter the amount of pain.
From these words I can't refrain.
What do I have left to gain?
Endless sorrow, looking forward to a brighter tomorrow.
Maybe it was all meant to end, this way, my dear friend.
There's no shame in failure, I will begin again, after your departure
Lessons learned, strength prevailed, hope not lost.
Not giving up, at a high cost.
Nothing lasts forever.
And that's why some people are not meant to stay, together.
