Moving On

Living without an edge, singing without a tune

Running from chaos that the mind brews

Seeking love that once was but now happens to be the past

With every breath, with every hitch, evoking the pain

What could be, what should be, remaining behind as the ifs of life

Living without an edge, singing without a tune

Juggling through life as the gypsies do

 

The sun doesn’t fail to rise

The moon doesn’t fail to shine

So why should life stop for a person that was never meant to be

To fight for her is what love preaches.

To fight for ourselves is what life teaches.

To move forward needs wisdom and strength

To stay behind makes one weak and meek

The choice is ours to make

To love ourselves is all it takes

Mark my words when I say this straight

What we hope to have is not what we always get.

The harsh truth of life sets us back.

The casualties of love make us writhe in fright.

Letting go is not as hard as it seems.

Basking in the tender moments of life is all about the feels.

One baby step at a time is all it takes

 

To lead a life that is worth the wait.
