The Day I Walked Away

Like an old grandma on her chair,
I became wiser.
Like a small rat against a snake,
I became a fighter.
Like a child on his birthday,
I became happier.
But most importantly;
Like a soothing breeze,
waving gently above the sea,
the day I walked away,
I became free.

Comment by scribbler on August 19, 2010 at 8:05am: I like your poem, Rowen. Was there a certain event that inspired this? I'm sorry I was slow in seeing this.

And this poem "came to be" in a really funny way.
I had finished writing Moving On, but i had yet to come with a title.
One of my best friends who loves to read my work suggested the name The Day I Walked Away.
But i wasn't exactly amused by the title for the other poem.
So i instantly came with the title Moving On.
And later, I decided that The Day I Walked Away was a great title, but for another poem.
If i'm not mistaken, two days later it came to be!
