At peace

Finally reaching that moment,
Realizing,
That it doesn't matter anymore.
There is no reason to hurt,
No reason to cry,
No reason to lament over the broken things,
No point in holding on to something that wasn't meant to be.

I understand.

I need something new,
Invigorating,
Fresh,
Fantastic,
I deserve it.
I deserve to be happy.

I don't know why I didn't think I did before.

I think it really is true,
That for things to start going right,
They first have to go absolutely wrong.

That's okay.

My life went haywire.
I dodged some bullets,
Avoided some crises,
And here I am,
Still living,
Still breathing,
Still trucking along.

Guess what? I feel fucking fabulous.
