Focus

A Poem by Everything Happens For A Reason

One step. Two steps.

 

One tear. Two tears.

 

Focus now. Don't let your mind wander

For surely you'll regret, your ill-fated ponder.

 

Don't look at the pictures,

Or the words he scrawled on your card.

Don't even think of the memories,

That have forever ceased creation.

 

Laugh with your friends. Say what they want to hear,

Thats the only way to move on now, and keep your mind clear.

Struggle with words, because each syllable makes you want to cry.

Stay staring at the ceiling each night, because you just want to die.

 

One step. Two steps.

 

Clothes. Makeup.

 

Focus now. Get through the day,

For surely you'll survive, if you just block out the pain.

 

Even if you walk down the street,

You last held his hand.

Or sit on the seat he kissed you last....

Don't let him win, by crying for what is lost!

And what will never, ever be again.

 

You know he said forever, you know he promised you the world!

But you know he had enough, so he'll move on with no qualm.

And you know he doesnt want you anymore

Realization like a knife to your heart...

But still it keeps beating, even though its only half.

 

One step. Two steps.

 

Lie. Laugh.

 

Focus now.

 

Focus.

-feels a stabbing pain- very emotive, too emotive too well described are those thoughts people tell themselves when they are hurt coz worrying people is not worth the time or the pityful looks.
very very very good kirsty

Stay foucued and you can make it through the hard times, almost true in anything in life. THe odd thing is I would have to say this is the best way to move ahead, you can't dwinddle in it. Good point
