Coming to terms
With how things
Have turned out
I promise
I won't hold your feelings against you
Or the words
That would flow from your insecurities
I thought
At one moment in time
That
You and I
Were invincible
But how the beating heart lies
I turn the page
Only to find you
Closer than before
I sometimes
Wish
You did love me
But you are
Someone elses destiny
And I as well
Once you were a stranger
But now you are in focus
I'm the one
That's a blur
I can't help
But feel the sting
Of that moon laced kiss
But I've gotten pretty good
At convincing myself
It just wasn't meant to be
And not to take it personally....




If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

But you are
someone else's destiny...

When one sees the truth,
one is right to move on...

Good to "see" you again, Kristen!

I relate to this more than you know, sometimes denial is truth and vice versa - acceptance is the hardest part, even though one can never truly let go.
Raw and powerful....I'm keeping this for someone.

Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world!
