i realize you've got your own life now.
i just need to learn that
time can make people change.
and it feels sort of treacherous looking at you,
because you are happy and that's all i wanted for you-
and we're never going to speak again.
even though i wanted to say goodbye on your birthday-
had to hold it in.
you're with your people
and you found peace with them.i'm not needed anymore.
i'm moving on too,
more quickly than before.
i found my people,
and i'm at peace with them-
but is it ever treacherous looking at me,
replaying every moment over and over again?it would never work out.
one of us would always have to
sacrifice long-term happiness cause
times were tough.
you changed so often, i thought
you would never truly change.
your tides kept changing-
except this time it is temporary-
and i still wanted to say goodbye on your birthday,
but you were walking out the door
before i could even hold you for the last time.
