**(the truth is idk what I’m yapping about, I can’t sound poetic for the life of me, so I just talked and threw in random ass semi colons and bad grammar ok anyways **🙏** )**

There have been times of hardship that’s for sure

many years ago there was a story to be told.

supposed to be told.

A story of hurt and betrayal

But you know what? Plenty of those exist already

everyone has heard the story of Julius Caesar too many times.

This is about giving up

at first it was giving up the hate and anger;

Although it can power you to accomplish great things you would’ve never imagined, bring you to some of the highest highs.

it has its valleys.

you should never let it take the wheels, anger, it’s a bad driver. It’ll crash and bring down anything in its way

And you couldn’t break the very little you had left

you have to let it go.

you gave up the anger.

Was it forgive or forget

It didn’t really matter. Did it?

You gave up the anger .

Since anger was such a bad driver,

you’d never drive if it took the wheel.

that’s when you stopped driving

you stopped thinking ;

thinking made you angry, and you couldn’t be angry, because that means you didn’t forgive.

But you did.

You gave up the hate.

So you had to stop thinking. you had to forget.

you pushed, you locked it away, you isolated yourself

And for a while, that worked

It worked so well that you forgot the anger

but not only the anger

You forgot it all.

The thing is… you were happy

that’s what mattered.

since you forgot, you forgave

then the locks start unlocking

And the doorbell starts ringing

there’s knocks on your door.

you know it’s back.

But. You forgot. You forgave.

it knocks stronger.

It strikes the door like thunder and the door splinters. You knew it was going to break soon

you try and try to look for help. Someone had to hold the door shut. Someone had to help you fight this storm. you needed help.

you rang, you asked, you tried to explain.

the phone was trembling

you opened your mouth to speak

but you couldn’t

you forgot

the door gives in.

It all looks down.

and you just give up.
