I watched my family walk away from me after a short stay in Birmingham without a backward glance and my feelings were hurt. What about the past? I found myself wondering. Don't you miss me the way I miss you? The truth is nothing was wrong with them moving on faster than me. This poem is about the journey to embrace the present, let go of the past and not be so hard on oneself for feelings things so deeply. It simply means you're connected to your heart when you feel strongly and this is a good thing.
Ever wondered why somebody loved you? Well in this poem I explore a time I had these questions and the conclusion I evetually came to about such questions...
I wrote this poem when things felt hard in my life. I couldn't stop thinking about the past and people who were no longer in my life. I felt annoyed with people around me for not being like people I had lost. I wrote this poem to remind myself to let go a bit, enjoy new people for who they are and keep my chin up. I hope it will be an encouragement to you too.
