What Goes Around, Come Around

No longer will I be playing the part
So I will be just binding my time
I hope your heart is dealt the blow
Like the cruel one you gave mine

This healing process will take time
Although this hurt I have to shed
I hope the guilt haunts you forever
From the past lies you have fed

As you take the cowards way out
Patiently I have stayed on track
I know if you go look in the mirror
A gutless person will stare back

What goes around ,comes around
That thought carries me through
I will be hoping the pain I have felt
Would eventually happen to you

Hope

Stop hurting yourself to hurt someone else

We all know what pain feels like but dont destroy yourself for vengeance

By being better, quality and of talent, you have something he wont ever achieve.

He apparently has managed lies, running off and if I quote my mother's words to me "you can run away from everything, but yourself".

A wolf is a wolf but only the Alpha Male and Femail mate.

Let the pack run and like all of us, try and pull the talent together.

It is always too easy for a talented brain to feel it has failed and then seek alternatives

I still do but I try to keep them to IT and the odd beer or two and red wine or two

Focus on the respect you have and on those who respect you

A powerfully honest write.   Thank you for sharing such a personal piece of yourself.  I hope you can soon come to a place of healing.

Hope - I know it doesn't help to say that many of us can relate to your unhappiness but I think you know that it has to pass for your own sake.  Don't beat yourself up about it but rather acknowledge your feelings and honesty and be glad that you are you and not the other.  If we love, we love, and that's that - it's no use denying it but rather carry it with you as something to treasure and eventually when you open the present to yesterday you will smile and not cry.  I'm hoping that for myself in a very short while - it's been a long time in coming.
