it's just that it's delicate.

i've had a lot on my mind lately
and i know it's a change
because i haven't been voicing my pensées
until i have them all sorted through
and sifted and put in the correct order.

mistakes. mistakes have been on my mind
and while mistakes have a tendency to be haunting and persistent
and enclosing
these are not.
have you ever considered the positive side of mistakes?
after the crushing realization and the
struggle to understand the new limitations and boundaries
that are so small compared to what was
so limited.
so nothing.
you begin to see the pain in a new light
because you can make new boundaries
you can start a new story.
questions are left unanswered
and things left unsaid
but dwelling does nothing.
so there is a mourning period
a time to let yourself be.
and just having someone there
silent and comforting and good and light
is all you need to pull you
all the way out of the dark depths of the water.
i understand because i've made them
i've learned because i've taken them
and made something from it.
i have taken too much time to dwell.
and there is too much road ahead.
don't forget to look back
but don't try to go back.
"love is so complicated.
it doesn't have to be and
i guess it's what you make it. remember that."
spoken like someone who has lived and learned.
you are almost over the bridge and out of the water.
so i guess what i'm trying to say is
you could say that about everything in life.
hope you took something from that.
love y'all too much.
and dedicated to my sweet, sweet friend
whom i posted this so she may read it anytime she likes.

until later "little monsters" (lady gaga)
