Felicity

 

I keep my distance, not for the sake of you but for the sake of me.

For the sake of keeping my soul my own and not losing my sanity.

I no longer look down the road we shared, which with time grows obscure

But I look down the path I’ve now set onto, which I pray easier to endure.

I turn my back and walk away from all that I had believed to be genuine and true,

I continue to travel on passing each and every emotion I now must learn to subdue.

I will continue down this path I have set myself upon and trust it leads to simplicity.

I will continue to increase this distance between you and me for it is the key to my felicity
