“I’m closing the chapter on this“, is what many say when things have come to an end,
filled with rage and regret till they’re opening a new section again.
But why is it that what caused the chapter to end,
is never really discussed.
It’s my belief that in order to stop the continuous cycle,
we should probably hit a few points first.
For starters, the key is recognizing,
you may be the reason the story always runs short.
If we’re being frank — I don’t think you ever quite learned,
to let others work through who you are at your worst.
It’s been excuse after excuse,
to rationalize why no one ever gets it.
But if we’re being honest here,
it’s you who never lets them.
You’re guarded in the worst way,
and try as you might it has a way of peaking through.
I’m not sure why others ever let you believe,
it was always them and never you.
It was never that you were hard to love
although it’s the story you always told.
For once,
take responsibility for why this very last chapter closed.
It takes self recognition to realize,
your heart is the one that needs working on.
Don’t get me wrong — it is sure to sting,
when you pull the bandaid back of old wounds forcing yourself to face it all.
However this time when you work through it,
and decide you’re closing this last chapter for good.
I believe you’ll be thankful that this time,
this chapter will finally close as it should.
To fresh starts and closing the chapter the right way,
Thelms xx
