Abandon: give up; desert or leave permanently.
Left behind
Tearfully curled up on the kitchen floor
Tears mixed with mint tea
Its soothing attributes lost on me
Again alone
wrapped in a new melody
The music a minor key
Echoes in the lonely hall
Abandonment is a powerful and sometimes debilitating feeling. And its hard to explain, and hard to recover from. So many times I've been left for other, and it is a real fear that I live with every day of my life.
So I consider myself a recovering pity-partyiest.
I choose to live each day fully and trust again.
I choose to accept that forever is sincere in the offering.
I choose all the colors of the rainbow.
I choose to renew hope daily, to follow Christ fully, and experience joy in the simple things.
And it in these choices that the demons and lies of past are squashed like a bug; an annoying bug that apparently has friends. I will squash them all. I'm prepared to squash the entire pile of lies and then sweep them right out of my life.
Faith.
Hope.
Love.
And the greatest of these things is love.
"It's our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities" -J. K. Rowling
