Release

As the pain I tried to numb resides 
I realize that alcohol, 
only made my sorrow cough. 
Seems my pain can swim, 
after the drinks, 
my beer goggles still see her smile 
as clear as day 
There’s nothing wrong with her smile... 
its okay. 
It just hurts to know on new years day 
That the smile I love 
will no longer come my way. 


It hurts...it still hurts.   
But I am...and will BE, 
so my sorrow remains 
til the day that I conquer the pain... 
I need her and I feel like she 
just wants me... 
Comparing them to her 
I see her face when they look intently... 
I say I want time alone, 
But I need company.

I reminisce on these powerful moments. Moments when I worried, and concerned myself with things that hadn't happened just yet.  A good friend of mine brought up the fact that if we do not learn to move on, and let go we end up essentially anchoring ourselves to the very thing that isn't bringing us joy.  Every so often, we find ourselves entranced in the melodies of sorrow, and we are responsible to manage these moments carefully so that we can continue to manifest the peace that we want in our individual worlds.  

Tell me about a moment when you felt this way.  A moment when you were challenged emotionally to deliberately choose to feel sad or fight for peace of mind.  DM me on my IG link below!!!
