Moving On

It was just another night
Drinking with my friends
Just like I have done
So many weekends

Everyone had passed out
Except for me and JD
Both of us were real drunk
But that night something happened to me

We started talking a lot
About things we had been through
Till he was wiping away my tears
Telling me it was an ok thing to do

I never cried in front of someone
I thought that made you weak
But he told me it was alright
And he continued to speak

He told me his story...
Adoption, Abuse, Hate
Drinking, Drugs,Suicide
And the worst of all.. RAPE

I had been there to
But it wasn't the same
But yet he kept telling me
We weren't the ones to blame

And he continued his story
With this scared look in his eyes
And his voice was shaky
As he let down his disguise

That night was the night
I let everything go
Because I realized
It was okay to do so

It took me so long
To move on from that night
Because no matter what i did
Nothing seemed right

But something about the way
He told me his story
Made me realize
That things would be okay for me
