MOVING ON

Years of total sadness
They say, I should move on
But memories still flood my mind
By now,  they should be gone. 

All the therapy, the rebounds 
The drugs, the wine , the beer
Nothing masks my feelings
Nothing stops my pain, my tears. 

It’s no longer about you
It’s me, I should let go
I’m better off without you
Why have I sunk so low?

It’s all about self image
Reflections of one’s self
It’s merely a fixation
I know that I need some help. 

Needing validation 
That was my first mistake
Something I got used to 
But , a habit I can shake. 

I need to be reprogrammed 
For me to forge ahead
Work on feeling better
Get the past out of my head.
