Moving On; Bitter Taste of Growth

I like to grow attached to things

When I grow attached to anything, I fall in love

And when someone falls, it is one of the most wonderful feelings you could ever feel

Then shortly, well eventually you will have to start learning how to love

And love is wonderful because it can be shown and received in many different ways

But like all living things in this world that God has made, it doesn't last

And that's where the hard part comes

You then start to learn, how to let go

That is where I struggle on

It hurts

It hurts so much that when I think I start to tear up, and I don't know why

Even after all these years, I have still yet to learn how to let go

Which has all lead to gain a new fear… love

Love is so frightening because the thing or person that you so dearly cling on has to eventually move on

So why do we still choose to go on like this

It hurts so so bad

However, I still love it for how it was made and how it has made me feel 

And to me, that fear then evolved into a hidden gem called beauty 

And when it becomes beautiful and you've realized that beyond its beauty there is also freedom and joy, that is when you learn how to let go 

But don't mistake me, just because I've learned to let it go doesn't mean that I've moved on however that also doesn't mean that letting go is a step to moving on

Eventually, it evolves to a happy memory that deserves every ounce of respect to be free 

Free of its shackles tying it down to earth and tying it down to you

And for that to happen you have to move on

And when you move on you can now breathe, breathe air of the living 

And what thing or person that you have shackled to is now released, it is then breathing air of eternal life and honoring eternal memory
