Been thinking

A lot about

What I want

Now

What am I ready for?

Never liked

Suspended animation

Waiting for some

Catalyst

To catapult me

In a direction

I mean

Is there

A certain

Time period

Each person

Must mourn

A relationship for?

Sit shiva

Does it make you

Seem heartless

If you're ready

For something new

Before the allotted time?

I'm ready

To test my

Dating sea legs again

Not necessarily

Hop into a relationship

Didn't think

I would feel

This for months

Hell, gave myself

Till March

But perhaps

With closure

Comes hope

On the horizon

Ready to be

In the world again

One thing

I know for sure

I deserve

To be happy

This decision

Has brought

With it a strange

Sense of

Unexpected peace

What I'm doing

I'm doing

For me

For once thinking

Of me

Without fear of the

What if?

What was

Is gone

And I don't

Want it back

Any of it

Not now

No more drama

Just a little bit

Of chemistry

Magic

And some

Fairy dust

I think I have

Come to a place

Where I can say

On to the next

&

Hopefully, the last!
