Eventually,
There comes a point.
Where you start to forget the pain.
And you remember all the good times.
You don't look back at what wrongs that have been done to you.
But you take the lessons learned and use them so no one will ever again get the best of you.
Moving on, it takes some time.
And once you start moving, it's hard to head back.
But the feelings that were once so strong fade.
And now there's nothing left except memories.
