@sr1 There is a hush in my chest that even the loudest music can't disrupt, a quiet acceptance of what is and what may never be. It’s like an uninvited guest settling in, refusing to leave until it’s devoured every drop of my peace

Everything depends on us. Never forget that everything takes shape and happens in our minds!  
We must learn to accept that we all make wrong choices sometimes, and often, we take the wrong path. But we have the power to remove or forget that event or person sooner.  
Don't forget-life is too short. We don't have time to keep making mistakes and experiencing everything.
Sometimes, we just need to let go, move forward, and simply breathe.
