"I'm sure I'll be fine" And I meant it of course At least at the time. "I'm finding myself" Amongst bottles of wine And collapsing health I can't see for what's mine Surrounded by filth In my marriage's shrine. "You need to be angry" they said As if I could blame someone else When I made my own bed. "It won't last forever" And I suppose that's true But when time seeps together You can't see "someone new" When all of my time Is devoted to you. "It's time to move on" And that's probably true But how do I do that When I still love you.
