Move on?

What defines who you are

Well, it’s a simple choice

Stay the way you are

Or be the one with a voice

All around the survivors scream

Who is strong and who is weak

Anyone who screams wants to be heard

Maybe that’s their way to be cured

You can hold onto something for years and years

Or you can simply let loose your tears

Maybe you choose to look back

from over your shoulder

And keep eyes forward

But don’t ignore the pain you’ve stored

Less it burst from you

Yes wounds are hard to heal

And the pain will always stay

But use that pain as a reminder

For there is always a way

The past doesn’t define you. You can use a traumatic experience to face future problems. Or you can simply wallow in it.
