Courage

Courage. It takes a lot of courage to put yourself in situations that are out of your comfort zone, but you know what takes just as much, if not more? Getting out of a situation, whether it's a relationship, or a place, or even just a habit. Sometimes we get so used to being there that we can't get out, or we don't want to. It takes a lot of courage to leave something in your past.

Something.
Something I want.
Something I feel I need.
Something bad for me.
It's real,
It's right,
It's hurting me.
Somewhere.
Somewhere comfortable,
Somewhere alone,
Somewhere dark.
Someone.
Someone I run to,
Someone I trust,
Someone who betrays me.
He's perfect,
He's mine,
He doesn't treat me right.
Something else.
Right around the corner,
If only I take a step
In the other direction.
To somewhere.
Somewhere better,
Somewhere brighter.
If only I can get rid of
Someone.
Someone right,
If only I can leave
Everything I've ever known,
Behind.
