Stop me if you\u2019ve heard this one before
\u2026on second thought, I\u2019ll just go ahead
and stop myself
Because I\u2019m over all the repetition
same words, same feelings, same mistakes, same regrets
same everything
why waste the effort
why find new ways to say the same old thing?
it\u2019s all tired and worn
I\u2019ve done it all before
been down this path
so many times
I can still see my footsteps
I\u2019m so tired
of knowing how the story ends
before it\u2019s ever written
and trudging on through anyway
\u2019cause what else can I do?
Maybe someday
I\u2019ll find a way
that doesn\u2019t lead to worn out places
and empty gestures
and sad, frustrated longing
\u2026but for now I get to take them once again
old friends I\u2019ll never be rid of.<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
