solace || poetry

thirty seven

"im trying to find my own happiness
so i apologize if in order to do so
i have to distance myself from you.
but its what i need,
and everything will work out in the end.
im so sorry if youve felt that im mad at you,
im truly not,
im just trying to figure out who i am as a person
and who in want to become"
— a text i sent to my best friend as i embark on my journey for happiness

and then
she left
so once again
i was alone
