Suitcase

I’ve been dragging this box around for awhile now

It’s all tattered and the latch is broken so it doesn’t even close

Whenever things got old I just threw them in here in this beaten down suitcase

It gets tiring have it around all the time

New friends

The suitcase was there

New relationships

The suitcase was there

The suitcase is always there

Like some kind of comfort

More like some annoying bird mocking me

Why do i keep this thing this thing that won’t leave me alone

Maybe I need it there

For the memories for the use-to-bes for the triumphs for the failures and all the lessons learned in between

I think it’s time to empty this suitcase to let it go

But I’ll miss it though this old tattered box

But everything missed isn’t always what we need it’s just something missed

I miss that suitcase

But everything missed isn’t always something we need it’s just something missed
