I am going to focus

I am going to get it right

I want you, but just know

I dont need you in my life.



I feel good and I am seeing clear

just how much I dont actually want

you here.



I am the one you neglect

like that book on the shelf

yeah i've been meaning to read it,

not today, but the next.



I am filled with pages

waiting to be opened and read

with blank ones tucked away in the back

ready to be filled in.



This book's story is someones favorite read

it might not be of your taste

filled with adventures and a romantic twist

just another something you have never read

so you'll pass me along

until I find a bed stand to hold me up strong

,my pages loosened from being read

over and over again.



I thought I was falling apart

but now I see I am just begining to

lead and start.



Start a new direction

one of my own making

with endless possibilities and roads to travel

for the taking.



I want it all, to live to the fullest

I am going to travel

I am going to be fearless.

And if love finds me again

I am going to take it

Feel it down to my bones



Never holding back or thinking of  a regretful past.



I am going to go

I am going to do it all

I am going to fly so high that I reach the star's

taking back my heart and giving it to myself

there i will keep it and treat it with respect.
