Moving On

They say that it's
Time to move on
But no matter how
Hard I try I
Can't bring myself
To do it

Here is what I do-
I tell myself that
Everything will be fine
And I desperately try
To believe in what I say
I bottle up my feelings
Instead of confronting
Them head on

Only when I'm alone
Do I divulge in my
Own thoughts for, I
Am Alice lost in
Wonderland, I
Even have my
Own Mad Hatter

Here is what I know-
Moving on isn't
Easy, it's a day
To day struggle
There are times
Where I want to
End it all, but
I remember that
Won't get me anywhere

Moving on doesn't
Necessarily mean that
You have to forget
Moving on simply
Means that you
Learn to accept
What has happened

Moving on is
The hardest part
But I know
I can do it
