Acceptance

For those who treat everything with such complexities,
Are destined to end up in misery.
Being caught up in such simple matters,
Are what causes you confusion and frustration.
If we all just learn to accept and move on,
Then life won't seem so complicated,
And we won't have to complain all the time.
I guess it takes a while for that to happen.
Even though we have the knowledge,
And perhaps we also possess the strength,
We wish not to let go,
We want to keep holding onto what is no longer there,
Because in the end,
That's all you really have.
The memory of what once was,
And what is never to be again.
