Bits and Pieces II

People aren't born sad; 
we make them that way.

I was
damaged and broken and unhinged.
I fell for a storm. 
And
I didn't really think I would get out unscathed.

I felt the fear
and I did it anyway.
But 
You cannot turn people into homes.
They leave 
with everything you put inside them.

The ax forgets; but the tree remembers.
I learnt that the hard way.

So I will
Let it Hurt.
Let it Bleed.
Let it Heal.
And Let it Go.

Because now
I'm just not surprised 
when people leave.
I'm actually more surprised 
when they stay.

*This poem was composed out of bits and pieces of sayings and quotes I found on the internet. I have twisted them a bit for my own purposes. 

My thanks to Nikita Gill, Word Porn, and Pintrest for the words.
