pattern

How do you move on from someone who’s become a habit?
How do you become better?

You just do it.

Honestly, I’d have to overthink it to give you a proper answer.
But here’s what I know:

People will hurt you six days to Sunday —
and then again.
And again.

They will keep doing it until you finally see the pattern.
It’s always the same.

You might find one or two along the way who truly love you,
who stay.
But most don’t.

I’ve been heartbroken.

And still — I want to fall in love again.
But the right way this time.

“Right” meaning: when it feels right to me.
And walking away when that feels right, too.

I used to stay too long.
Gave too many second chances.
Sometimes just because I was bored or drifting.

Not anymore.
