Time Relapses
By Kenneth R. Cabrieto

     For a while now,
     I sat alone,
     Wishing for things to get better
     As time passed by.
     Now that I know that they won't,
     I'm going back to my ways
     So that I can be happy again.
     Although memories may have been keeping me down.
     I can't dwell on things you didn't believe in
     And I can't wait around for someone who's not coming.
     It's time for me to finally move on.
     Far away from pain
     And back towards happiness.
