Onwards

I close my eyes and turn away from these dark rooms
that only seem to exist
because I continue to peek in to check whether they are still there

My future moved on long ago
stepping away from this city with its ghosts and beauties
this country I knew I'd never grow old in

I close these chapters
these broken dreams and hopes
a lost way of living and believing
that only ever drove me to the edge of myself

I can feel my life living
breathing
elsewhere

Somewhere the better side of me
awaits me smiling and happy

Here..
