Beauty From Pain
Life is far from simple.
Soul searching for numerous years,
I found myself often wondering
Why I kept shedding all the tears.
I've cried my share of oceans,
Deep purple and Hawaiian blue.
But something wonderful happened...
The day that I left you.
I realized you never loved me,
It was all just a game.
Reality whispered in my ear
"To him it's all the same!.
Fish don't need bicycles...
Don't waste your precious time.
Try relaxing in the summer sun
With a Margarita, salt and lime."
Reality clearly spoke the truth,
As I watched the waves roll in.
My drink was cold like you,
And the sun warmed my heart again.
In the end, I owe it all to you,
Realizing selfish people simply have no place.
But beauty from pain I grasp on to...
And I surrender to with grace.
