I didn't leap,
I couldn't,
I thought I was ready,
But I wasn't....
Maybe I never will be?
Who knows..
All I know now is that my heart is still,
And my head no longer aches with indecision,
I feel at peace,
And at ease in my own skin.
For the first time in a long time,
I am happy in my own mind.
Happy that this conclusion was mine,
And mine alone.
That was important,
For if my heart was somewhere else,
As it was, this wouldn't work.
I know longer ache for him,
I guess that is me switching on to the here and now,
Turning away from the 'what if..'
'What ifs' can't exist in my world,
But I can still hold onto a dream,
Whether it be his face or yours,
The dream is still the same,
I just gotta give it all I got,
And make it work for me,
Or, get out.
Either way I'm not afraid anymore,
The darkness is my friend,
And if the dark angel returns,
And spreads her solitary arms around me once more,
I shall embrace the comfort they bring.
For I know that from the darkness,
A light always beckons.
And I will find him.
Always.
Surprisingly alive,
