That beautiful life you promised me forever was a vow we both said I'm the only one laying in the empty bed I don't want to let go I don't want to stay I know the price I will pay I only want to be with you. Just you? Only you left, left, left without saying goodbye? Time for these tears to dry? You were never worth a single lie? Your words stabbed through my heart like a knife? I needed. Let go and live my life

Hey, Ryan. I keep on tagging you as poetry. You got to put this in the poetry and writing channel because you are creating poetry through your pain, through your process. And I'm wishing you only growth and transformation, but you're in it. And it's so beautiful to be human with you, alongside you. It's real and it's felt by others. And that's the gift you're giving us. Thank you

And, like, everybody who reads it and hears it is like, Brian, you need to do something with that. So I did. After ending a 26 year relationship with someone who wasn't willing to come out and then going through my pain as a child, I always stayed positive, and now I'm a published author and doing me. And thank you for recognizing
