I walked Away

I walked away

From the uncertainties

Of false hope

It hurt deep

I had to let go

Of that deceitful good thang

That wasn't good for me

It left me triggered

By my yesterdays

The pain

Abandoned healing

Not fully paying attention

Because the feeling was so strong

It became a façade

Of underlying wounds

Trying to escape the mind

That confused the flesh

Of temporary pleasure

I walked away

From cycles

Of defeat

Constant battles

Within myself

Repeating the same old thang

Expecting change

That's insane

Deceitful eyes

Found truth in lies

Numb the heart

Refused to experience pain

Trying to escape the mind

That confused the flesh

Of temporary pleasures

I walked away

Of what could be

But never was

Of what would be

But never was

Of what's meant to be, will be

With no intentions

On how to be

Limitless boundaries

Emotional comfort

Felt naturally

Availability of dysfunction

Trying to escape the mind

That confused the flesh

Of temporary pleasures

I walked away

To the point of no return

New destiny

Of focusing

Exploring

Chasing my dreams

Understanding this walk

Was apart of my journey

I walked away

6 Nov 2022

Do you know what's hard to do? Walk away from something or someone that feels good to you but you know is not good for you. I walked away from someone who served purpose in my life but was not purposeful for my life. Or, maybe the timing was not right. It was hard though.

Over the years, I've had a hard time connecting with people. When I do meet someone that I connect with, I try my best to hold tight to them. But, I've realized that some people are just passing through to help me grow, learn something new, or just to teach me a lesson. I believe there is purpose for everyone you meet but not everyone is purposeful for your life.

Letting go..

It is a necessary part of growth. So, I'm learning that it is ok to let go of anyone or anything that does not serve purpose in my life.

Breaking cycles...

Letting go has helped me with breaking cycles of failed relationships that I tend to hold on to a bit too long.

Change...

Breaking cycles leads to change. In order to break away from something or someone, you have to change the way things were going previously. Change started with me when I was able to set healthy boundaries for myself. I have change the way I respond to most people and things. That goes back to purpose. If I feel that it does not serve me any purpose, then it does not deserve a response. This is also conducive to my mental health. I am more at peace this way. I've learned to be mindful of what I allow in my space...my mind...my heart.

In life, learn to walk away from those people or things that are not good for you or to you. Always live on purpose!
