Distant Memory

by Esther Gonzales • February 24, 2020

You are a distant memory
Filled with growth and regret
Countless second chances and lies
I’m so tired of all your controlling and belittling ways
Yet, I still wish you the best
You deserve to never know exactly
Who you are
Because if you did,
It would break your heart

I am a New Jersey based poet who aspires to share my story through poetry and prose focused on faith and my journey with depression. I have overcome many obstacles and I believe everyone has a story to tell, even if they haven't found the words yet. I hope my words can inspire others to believe in their purpose and to find strength to climb the next mountain.
