Revisiting your past
is bittersweet
for it feels like your life
is stuck on repeat.
Too hard for you to learn
from your mistakes
and too easy to take comfort
in your heartache.
Imagining how your life
might have turned out
if you had embraced the love
instead of the doubt.
These memories only serve
to reinforce your opinion
that all those years ago
you made the wrong decision.
You ran away so as not to
confront your humiliation
and by the time you returned
were no longer part of the equation.

Thank you Kindness šš«š
