My 1st Isnt My Last

i thought that not seeing you would turn my life upside down
and i was right
im happy, im smiling like never before, im laughing and i have not shed a single tear
and here i thought it would be hard
i will admit seeing you (even though it was a picture) brought back emotions i never wanted to feel
the love, the anger, the sadness, the regret, the fear, the pain, the happiness, the laughs
all of that came rushing back and i was stunned for a moment
BUT i realized what i have now doesnt even compare to way back when 
writing this now is getting all of it out so i would NEVER go back 
im stronger now then i have ever been before
hearing your name doesnt pain my heart any more
i dont have to beat around the bush anymore
im sssooo grateful because you've should me what i always deserve to have and i have it now

One of the great lessons in life are usually taught by someone we cared for. You have come out the better! I enjoyed reading your sincere and honest poem!

I am working toward that peace myself as I move on with someone who appreciates the real me. Thank you for posting this.
