Doing Everything I’ve Always Wanted To Do
An endeavour to move on
I’ve started re-living
Meeting new friends,
Walking through nature
So my heartache ends.
***
Meeting old boyfriends
And staying out late,
Going to parties
And on the odd date.
***
Rekindling old friendships
That got lost in time,
Wrapped in their support
My partners in crime.
***
Trying new interests
Suggested by friends,
I’m much more carefree
My hearts on the mend.
***
Bought a new car
Then quit my career,
Work for myself
And I now volunteer.
***
Learning new skills
Stepping outside the box,
Trial and error
In the feelings unlocked.
***
I’m doing everything
I always wanted to do,
To forget the dull ache
I have from losing you.

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
