Another one bites the dust...

I'm happy with who I've become

So relieved that you weren't "the one"

Because now I can explore my options

Without a care in the world.

 

Soemtimes I wonder how you could hurt me so much

But then I realized you did it for yourself.

You're not who I thought you were...

but now that we're done I'm better off for sure!

 

Living without you I set my own pace

I walk alone without your hearts' embrace

Sometimes you cross my mind and I wonder what I did wrong

But I know it's nothing we could control

 

I just hope one day you understand how much you hurt me--when it's the last thing my heart needed

 

A funny thing happened the other day

I looked at a picture of you and me

and...

nothing happened.

I saw teop people...neither of which still exists in this time and place.

 

You were there when I needed you

And me for you

But I can say with great conviction

That I'm myself again...without you.

 

You hurt me--bad

But I've forgiven you.

Sometimes I jusat ask, why?

But then I realize that I will not have the answers....and that's okay.

Not much of a poem.....about a different boy....my first "love".....after the fact, obviously!
