Leaving Your House

The last time I left your house, I was nervous and scared.

Scared because I knew the end was just around the corner

and nervous because I did not know what to expect next.

That night just a few minutes after leaving your house

I started having fun.

I started enjoying myself.

I started feeling comfortable again.

The weekend after leaving your house

I packed a few things and drove for hours

I met myself on the road

I liked myself that weekend so much.

Weeks after leaving your house

Everything got clearer and brighter

My friends were suddenly the best friends

My family grew closer and tighter.

Now months after leaving your house

I am happier than ever

I have found my self in every way

I can now understand my ways

I love me more than I ever had before.

The only thing I regret today

Is not leaving your house sooner

I guess I should thank your friend.

And yes, that was the best move I ever made.
