Chapter Ending

I'm often stuck

at a younger age.

I focus on the past,

and can't turn the page.

My story is on hold

because I sit and reread.

I will never finish this book

If the story I don't proceed.

I've grown attached to this chapter

I feel like it's all I've known.

If I finish this book

I'll feel completely alone.

I keep rereading

Hoping to find something new.

In the pages I have memorized

Like it might just come true.

But the past is the past,

And this story became too long.

This book was already finished

It's time I've moved on.
