Control

I cannot control you

I cannot stop you from doing things that will hurt me

I cannot change you

But I control me

I have the power stop the pain

I won't be able to always know your intentions

But I can decide when to leave and to me,

having that power is empowering. 

Fingers Crossed

Some days I feel hopeless
My heart feels tired and
I can no longer carry this weight
But I stay hopeful
I tell myself we learned from the past
Over and over
I read the promises you made me
And I believe you
I am choosing to believe the
Pain you cause me is over
I have to

Empty Notepad

You make promises, you make so many promises.
I should have known you couldn't keep them,
when you don't even care enough to write a single one down

All I Can Do

All I can do
Is trust you.
Even if I have no clue
What you do.

All I can do
Is let go
& forgive you.
Even if its changed
How I view you.

All I can do
Is love you
The rest is up to you.

Be Better

I have forgiven you for who you were
but understand that I will not forgive you
for who you are anymore.
So please be careful of who you become.
The past is in the past,
I only hope you have learned from it.
Our future is in your hands
And my heart can only break so much.
