one of my biggest mistakes was backtracking and running back home.
they never tell you what you can break when you try to fix the past.
time is linear, yeah, but our memories are malleable.
i lost my best friend to rough sex on our warm bed.
now it's not best friend, but ex-girlfriend with matching scars.
funny how time can change our vernacular.
i could be wandering the cities,
marveling at the colors and the lights and the changing seasons,
instead of being this angry shell, beating at the walls i built.
let the legends and love stay in the bathroom graffiti
and the bleeding words that will save someone half a world away.
learn to ebb and flow, fall apart with longing and loss.
but then, go learn and feel, touch, taste, see and smell something new.
part the fourth dimension with both hands instead of doing the backpedal.
we can go anywhere.
there's a love waiting to be found through ten thousand miles of restless nights.
never go back.
ever.
