Moving On

It's not so easy to move on.

Sometimes I want to not face myself.

Then, at times, I want to go back.

Go back to undo the past.

At other times, the future is the key.

Either way, past or present, I am running -

running from me, away from me -

running away from reality.

Then slowly, surely, I face myself -

not alone this time.

I appreciate my friends -

who get me to live again -

live in the present -

where reality is.

Moving on is not easy -

but with my friends help -

self-acceptance is moving on within me.
