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.
