I’m always drawn to you. It doesn’t seem to matter how much time passes, or what nonsense we put each other through. There is a force inside me that is all about you.
People always carelessly say that time heals all wounds but sometimes this is just a cop-out so that they don’t have to make the tough decisions for today. I should know, i am a master of running. The trouble is that not all wounds are meant to heal, some wounds are meant to be overcome and the scarring over time becomes a pleasant reminder of how much we overcame to be where we are. We did not run with the time excuse.
You see, sometimes someone leaves an imprint on you that time simply cannot erase. It doesn’t mean that you will not be happy, it just means that you always know that it could have been better.
People always also say that “you should learn from the mistakes of others”. trouble is that no one is perfect, and unfortunately some of us take time to mature in some areas. The painful lessons that we learn from experience, are usually the ones we are least likely to repeat and the ones that shape who we become. They are the most likely to help us extremely appreciate the blessings that we have and cling to them with our lives.
So as i acknowledge how much i am drawn to you, i also acknowledge that you may be one of those wounds that was never meant to heal and i do hope that the “time heal all wounds” cliche will at least prove to be true in my case for i do not appreciate a lifetime of thinking that it could have been better.
