Still Afloat and moving Forward

[BeingMe]

We were discussing music on someone's thread. I love Fleetwood Mac for the songs they sing that catch my imagination, for instance, one of the stanza's in "Say Goodbye" is so applicable to DBing:

Now I finally found my way
Now I know just what to do
Once you said goodbye to me, yeah
Now I say goodbye to you

Is this not the poetic definition of detachment?! I wrote a poem about moving on in my Poetry 2nd year class. Here it is, if anyone's interested. Out of all the poems I produced, this was my prof's favorite. I found much material in my M to write tons of poems.

"New Love"

For a new love to work
some things should be
realized.

What has been cemented
to my soul, to my spirit
may not have been
resolved.

I'm like a shiny new,
red, sports car
that's been driven far
through dirty snow,
icy mud built up
in the wheel well.

You can remove the stains,
kick the ice ball muck off, but
still,
a remnant of the past remains.

I need to be completely detailed,
not an inch of dirt left
to spread it's toxic load.
Then, and only then
will I be ready for a new road.
