I Release


I Release I release the sadness I felt when you left me in this world to go to another place because I know you’re always watching over me. I release the jealousy I felt when you didn’t pick me as captain because Now I understand that the hardest working does not always get what they deserve. I release the anger I felt when you cheated two days after you took my virginity because now I feel what real love is like. I release the rage I felt when you gambled all your money away because the love I will have for my family can stop any addiction. I release the temptation of taking the easy way out because defying the stereotypes will be the greatest FUCK YOU to the people who put them on you. The feelings I am letting out isn’t for anyone else but me. I am soul searching for the right direction but life is as complicated as finding footprints in a sand storm. From now on I live my life for me and out of every situation there is a negative and a positive, but just like the world is a big journey so is your life so it’s up to you to decide which way your compass is pointing
