Dualistic Disparity

A poem I wrote a few years ago following a breakup I went through, in which I knew nothing could be done to change anything yet I still hoped for some sort of future. Through this misfortune I was very focused on the "what ifs" and "what could have beens" rather than trying to cope, understand, reflect, learn, and move on. This poem focuses on my understanding of the difference between what I feel and what I know. The poem hints at both these aspects throughout, focusing on both moving on and knowing how hard it is.
