The Beginning of My End (A Poem)
For some things to begin, others have to be declined. This was my beginning of the “end”. What is yours?
By Areeba Ashrafi
Regrets I held and ties I broke,
Lies I spoke and truths I held in my heart,
The pain that I endured did not justify,
Ignorance of my speech,
That I still have for the ones who love me.
All the cuts that I could not patch up,
Because you walked away uninformed,
Leaving me broken,
Making me wonder,
Why is it taking me so long to heal and recover?
From something that I never held on to for that much longer?
The answer-
Lies in regrets!
Regrets that I held on too long after you left.
Regrets that I soothed where you did not deserve.
I now know,
Regrets were necessary
for the beginning of my end.
