sweet dreams.

[discardedlies]

to be able to put the past to rest
not to forget
but to let go
to move on
instead of clinging
to something that is dead
instead of bringing it back to life
just to watch it die over
and over and
over again

(as if it does not hurt
enough already)

to be able to put the past to rest
not to forget
but to say good night
to tuck it in
to whisper 'sweet dreams'
and finally
finally
let it sleep
