May 2014
You've been gone for two months.
You say you've already fallen in love with her
You take her on all the dates we "never had time for"
You give her all your attention-
Your eyes which were always focused anywhere but on me,
never leave her beautiful face.
If you are happy, then I'm happy for you.
I am.
But that doesn't stop the jealous rage from bubbling up.
It clouds my vision and more importantly my mind.
Guess I was a two year long placeholder.
Bu that's perfectly okay.
You and your lies made me who I am today.

And who am I today?
A sometimes confused, but strong, independent girl.
A girl who doesn't need saving or fixing.
certainty not from some boy.
A girl who now realizes what it means to love someone,
and truly understands that those who love you never walk away
(not permanently anyway)
So thanks again for your fabrication.
Through the lonely days in your absence I found myself.
Gimme a title?
