i spend too much time on my makeup
to let you mess up my mascara

I’m beyond help
Beyond reach
Some lessons aren’t yours to teach

There’s nothing to stop me
From walking out the door
I won’t look back
My life means more

It’s not really you
Who’s made a mess
It’s what we do
That needs a rest

The back and forth
Covers no ground
And somehow we fight
Without making a sound

Remember when we laughed
And broke down our walls
Now our love takes a bow
For it’s last curtain call.

It’s funny how people
Find ways to change
To take their pieces
And rearrange

Til you don’t recognize
The person you knew..

You’re somebody else -
On to somebody new.

It's been a while since I've been here.
Missed you.
Just wanted to stop by and say hello, I'm sorry.
You were always the one, so keep going without me.
You'll do just fine.

Love you, bye.

Today I decided you would be:
just a memory.
Not a dream I will see, whenever I look forward.
Not a regret that haunts me, when I look back,
Simply a memory;
not a weight to be shouldered.
I have picked up the pieces; I'm overall intact.
carry on luggage: one I'll, soon, unpack.

Am I going to be protected today
Is this my last night
Goodbye to this body goodbye to this reality
This still doesn’t make sense to me
Will I finally be free?
And if so what really is free
