My soul has been sad for far too long.
I want to be joyful again.
I want the still, small, quiet moments to not be filled with anyones memory.
My soul aches and my body is tired.
I wish I never learned the truth about you, at least then I could go to sleep with the perfect image I had of you in my head.
But you distorted it.
My eyes were opened.
I was forced to see the truth.
It wasn't because of what you thought was best for me.
It wasn't romantic, selfless, valiant, or brave.
It was selfish, narcissistic, egotistical, lustful and painful.
Nothing will change that.
But I'm a lover.
I don't love many,
but the ones I do,
I always will.
I love deeply, courageously, boldly, widely, and freely.
I just need to let go of your memory,
so that my soul can be happy again.
