Moving on

It was just another dream, wasn't it? But unlike the others, this dream left bruises and wounds that will never heal.

I should have seen it coming. There is no such thing as perfection. Everyone is selfish in their own way. Selfish and ungrateful.

Friendship, I thought. Silly me.

Don't get me wrong, I don't blame you. I couldn't possibly blame you. I could only do that if I weren't as selfish and ungrateful myself. But, guess what? I am.

So, although your haunting presence remains, I will move on. And one day, hopefully, I will be able to live in peace.
