I've been down this road before.
Different places,
Different faces,
The same decision.
Do I keep trying?
Do I forgive the heartache?
Or do I forgive myself?
Do I heal and move on?
I have been here
So many times before.
I felt ignorant
For making the same choice
Over and over
Yet, expecting
Different results.
So this time
I made the right choice.
I made my peace with our history.
I kept those memories tucked away
When you came this way.
I stomped out those embers
And chose different.
This time I moved ahead
Glad that lesson
Is finally over with.
