You will see.

You watched me
as i dealt with the heartache
of the thornbush that is you
your thorns may snag me
bleed i may
but this too will heal


you watched me
as my emotions became deafening
roaring
screaming
pleading for the familiar
but knowing the unknown was all that you could give me



you watched me
lose my way and find strange comfort in this lostness
for it bound me to our past
and stopped my new future from pushing through



But now see me
as i push through this dark tangled mess
and step through the exit that releases your hold
stronger and stronger i promise to be
stumbling along the way i'm sure


But now see me
never hang my head low
because your faults were not mine to own
my happiness is within reach
this heart has not tired yet

So now you see me
and watch me walk away
but no footprints did i leave
for this walk is mine alone
and trespassers are not welcome

this road is built for one
postcards will mark my journey.
