This Is My Path a Mara Prose Poem

I never thought I’d see the day Where our love would ebb and go away I always thought we would be one I never thought we’d be undone I always imagined a storybook ending I never knew we would be past mending Was it worth it? Who knows, It’s still being written There are times I’m lonely but then there are times remotely, I feel a sense of peace, wonder and control Because now I have a new lease on life Now I have a world without strife I’ve said my goodbyes much to everyone’s surprise I’ve cried my tears and dried my eyes I’m mending my heart and learning to live apart Will I love again? Maybe, I could start My priorities lie in loving myself I don’t have to change anymore I can just be thyself I let it all go because it was what was best for me I needed a change, I needed to be free I’ve spread my wings and hope I don’t fall I’m following a new path, I’m following my call It’s hard, it’s taxing and some days seem so blue But then God sends a sign for me to remain true I am grateful for the strength to press on I am grateful for the people I can fall back upon The story is being written right before our eyes All the new developments are a wonderful prize So I accept my new journey and I am in no hurry I want to enjoy the experiences, I don’t want my memories to be blurry Because this is my path and I have to make it last This is my path and let’s just leave it at that ~ Author Mara Prose
