Clarity

When I saw you,

for the first time, since I last saw you,

I didn't know what to expect,

I didn't know what was going to be next,

I didn't know if your words would hit different in person than text,

But I didn't want to not find out,

I didn't want to steer clear,

out of fear,

Fear that a connection may still be there,

And there was,

I think there will always be,

something between us that I will always see,

but that doesn't change anything for me,

seeing you, made me see it more clearly,

My connection with you will always be more,

more than the person I have now,

But no matter where I go with him, our relationship remains a closed door,

Maybe he is not meant to be my person,

but neither are you,

For me you were a beautiful lesson,

for a while there, you were my glue,

But I don't need to be held together anymore,

I know,

I have so much more left in store for me,

I am so happy I had the chance to see,

clarity of what you are to me.
