Move On

 Been doing some thinking lately

Not too much, just enough to give me a headache

Processing where I am and where I came from

Figuring out where I want to be


What do I want to be?

Am I free, single and ready to roll out

Be myself as I've been told

Being a better person should be my goal


I don't necessarily like where I come from

Being addicted to doing the wrong things

Temporary fulfillment for a lifetime of guilt

Nothing is ever worth the pain


As my thought process rolls along

I am appreciative of my support group and love them all

If I could only love my self enough

To catch myself before I fall


I realize that There's no turning back

The wife , the house and dog are all gone

A death of sorts that I killed myself

I have no excuses only regrets


But I will say I've gained an understanding

I think more before I speak, or act

Realizing the impact of what I say or do

Can turn out catastrophic as my personal past


I no longer seek out reparations for what I've done

Evidently the damage is done and I can't fix it

But I'll never know the final story

The book was closed before it was finished


I can no longer ask for forgiveness

It's never coming and for that I'm sad

But I can't live for the waiting and expectations

This is all out of my hands


The silence screams out answers

So loud and very clear

Yes I know I left a better place and life

But gave a life back to a better future


There are no more "One Day's" for me

The future does what the future will do

My contributions have been made

My debts have been collected and I've paid the man


There's something about time away from life

There really is another road travelled

When I become engrossed in my negativity

It takes me away from the place that makes me happy


I continually try to be a better man

A better brother friend and Ex to many

I can't cover the bases like I once did

It's no longer a requirement so I rest in Peace
