I’d like to think that I’m a strong, educated woman. No wait, I KNOW that I am a strong, educated woman. I know right from wrong, when to walk away and when to stay, in most cases…
You came back and flipped everything upside down, turned things inside out, like some force of nature or natural disaster. I must admit, it was a beautiful disaster. Now I question my future, a future that I painstakingly planned. A future that I edited over and over so that I could have the best possible outcome. Now I’m willing to throw away certain things and give up certain aspects, all for a dream. Now what do I do? Should I re-edit what I want for you? What are you going to give up for me? 50/50 right? What if this dream turns out to be a nightmare? Should I stick around and find out? Do I run? *point of clarification, lol… When I say give up or throw certain things away, I don’t mean my education or family/friends.
Run? That’s a word my parents told me to delete from my dictionary at a young age. I still remember my dad telling me, “You don’t run from anything. Face your problems, Nnenne, never back down!” I don’t want to run, and I’m scared to find out how this story ends.
Maybe were just too young to realize what we have? Maybe we need to find each other in another 4 or 5 years? *sigh*
