A poem about moving on from a relationship.

Move On

Moving On
Unloving someone isn't an easy thing to do.
All those treasured memories, you have to let go.
It's like letting a bird flee out of its cage.
And like effacing your love notes from each page.

First, you need to learn to forgive and forget.
From the very start—the day you first met
All the things you've shared, be that good or bad,
Forget all the happy and sad moments you've had.

Delete all the photos that you dearly treasure.
I know it's painful, but you have to endure.
Quit your habit of stalking him on his Facebook page.
And let everything burst out in one victorious rage.

All those heartbreaking songs, if you're ready to hear
Without feeling the pain and not shedding a single tear,
When you already wear a smile and have trimmed your hair,
Are marks that you've moved on from your saddest affair.

Written for: "April 29 Poem--Directions to...?"   in "Dew Drop Inn
Prompt: Directions—Tell us how to get somewhere (a real “destination” that might or might not be a real place, or might be an emotional place, etc.)
