Lesson of the season
Some people are blessings and some people lessons
A blessing in disguise they would say, but for me Letting go at some point wasn’t an option till your absence lit the way and led me through the darkness
Looking back now, seeing things with new content, the colors that I once saw in you turned into murkiness
A new feeling that I never had before appeared so instantly, allowing me to see things and live my life like I never had before
Pushing through sticks and stones, I kept myself up; while you lead the crowd to run all over me like if I was trash laying on scrapping grounds
Now you look at me, asking why that smile, letting me know there’s a glow in my eyes you hadn’t seen in a while
The sad truth is that it’s a look that you don’t recognize because the love you showed only new the tears in my eyes and that’s what made you smile
but I loved you so much I was okay with you drowning me down, while you knew that loosing you was one of my biggest fears as you used my love against me to hold on to future years
Although my love was pure
I had to learn how to say goodbye
The love I wanted wasn’t good for me and at the time I didn’t understand why
Now I finally understand that for better things to come you have to let something’s go, now I feel blessed and more than thankful to be able to say goodbye to the lesson of that season.

The love I wanted wasn’t good for me and at the time I didn’t understand why. That line hit me so hard because that was once who I was. Loved your poem!
