On My Knees

I'm still working through some things, still getting back into the feeling of writing poetry. I imagine my work is going through a sort of juvenile regression period right now while I vent some feelings about a high schoolish drama-filled relationship.

This particular poem has actually brought me some closure. You can only hurt and lie to a person so many times. Each time you do it, break trust in some manner, you are throttling whatever good remains until there's just nothing left and it's only a relief to have someone finally walk out of your life (again). When you're still hanging on to that relationship, trying to salvage shreds of what's left, you close yourself off to other possibilities, but when you finally let it all go, the Universe knows and opens up windows (see what I did there? Window-Lickerr) knowing that you're now ready to look through them.

I've let go of someone that was holding me back, and the Universe brought me someone else really special in return, an amazing friend who has shown me that all hope is not lost and that the real me is still in here, just waiting to come back out and play. Thanks for being a super cool guy, Window-Lickerr
