I know I complained about you
I know I wanted you here
But I'm happy you said No
I'm happy you're no longer here
I'm enjoying the independence
Of making decisions alone

I'm loving your absence
Looking back at it now
At who your really are
Remembering your personality
That which I was blinded to

I thought you were protective
But you were really controlling
I thought you were loving
But you were really selfish
I thought you cared
But it was only about you

Surprising how you can see clearly
When you take off the rosy glasses
How you can reason rationally
When you get that reality check
How you can be responsible
When you learn that you're alone
