Move On
Time stops for nobody;
Even if we beg it to.
As each day brings forth a new page,
We tend to forget that each day can bring new pain.
Everyone begs for the happiness or the fearless hours.
But for those who can’t move forward,
All they can do is wish for the best.
The wisest people in the world know that pain makes us stronger.
They know that only being happy is wishful thinking.
That’s why we have to move on.
Even if pain is all we known or felt,
We move on.
So, even after all the late assignments;
Sleepless nights for tests;
Countless hours of studying;
Time continues to move on.
For some, this year has been the worst, normal, or best.
They still move forward to the new day.
Time will move on.
For most this year will be remembered,
As others will soon forget.
But for me?
I will remember and come back to the year I mature in.
This isn’t my goodbye or my farewell.
It’s just me saying it’s time to move on.
