Reality Check

I guess this is a reality check. I don't feel pessimistic or enraged at the moment. This incident was the last straw. It's more of an epiphany than a lesson learned. The point of all this - to grow up. I need to accept the fact that the past is in the past. I can't do anything about it. I guess when that door closed, I had to find the key to the next one. This is that "key". You and I are two different galaxies now. We used to be one. This is how it is. I need to get over you, for real. You're 98% there, so this should give me the confidence to start. It's time to step past that newly opened door. I need to be more mature about my actions. Respect the respected and trust more. I came to the conclusion that I haven't really changed much. I'm hard-headed and a nuisance. As much as I said that I have changed with this and that, I didn't. Here it is, the open future. This is not just growing up, but growing out, of you. If destiny beholds our paths to connect again, we'll just leave it to destiny. I can't change fate, nor could I have changed you. I've been put on shackles since you came back into my life. These shackles also had weights. That "key" also unlocks these things too. I'm doing just want you wanted me to do, to move on. You've taught me a lot without even saying a thing. You also kept repeating a line, "Life's too short to be sittin' 'round miserable." It's time to say good bye one last time. To you, to us, and the past. Good bye.
