One Fine Day

By raspberry89

I don’t live like I used to
I don’t know me like I once knew
All I know are words that tenderly condescend
What was real to me, to you was pretend
I'd love to forgive and forget
But In the back of my mind I still feel the neglect
It has now manifested into loneliness
And I fear in my heart only this
Happiness in life is no guarantee
I am not who I used to be
One day I’ll try to look back and smile
But I’m certain that day won’t come round for awhile

    I am right there with ya, I felt every line! As I read through your penned thoughts, I gazed into my own reflection. Yes, maybe one day......but no time soon. Nicely written rb89...

    How many of us have lost ourselves inside ourselves...? The pain of that is almost unbearable but there will come a day that you will be able to look back and smile at all the shit you've been thru. Great write. :)
