This Is What I Learned When I Let You Go

By

People often say,
that if you want to be happy,
you have to build bridges
instead of building walls.

Ironically,
it does not always go the same.

I finally realize the need
of burning the bridges between us.

Sad as it may seem,
but then I know now,
that some people are not just worth going back to.

I miss your presence.
I miss you every day.

But then, that doesn’t mean
I want you back.

One day
you’ll look back and realize
that I was the one
and you screwed it over.
Till then,
I’ll be happy somewhere,
in the arms of someone I deeply love.

Someone who sees my worth
and loves me
for all that I am
and all that I am not.

You deserve freedom.
I deserve better.
You’re finally free.
