Loving you should have been easy to do
Only made it easy to say goodbye
The more I saw those fake tears, the more we were through
There’s nothing between you and I
Don’t try to stop me
If you don’t, that’s okay
Never taken me seriously…Must break free
Nothing you say can make me stay…Anyway…
Wallowing in loneliness…
Mind’s in distress
Heart’s in duress
Soul confesses
Emptiness…
Witnessed as
Darkness
Finesses
One hell of a mess.
Yet the Universe has never been so surprising
The echoes are rising
Hope’s sensitizing
My faith…
My dreams…
As I lie in bed next to my window
Watching the stars and the moon glow
The more I see the light
The less I feel the pain
That haunts me in the night
Over and over again.
Courageously facing my fears
Wholeheartedly embracing my tears
So happy…Indeed Blessed when I’ve walked away from yesterday
There was no reason to stay…
Standing erect…Taking one step at a time
Moving forward into a brand-new day
The Victory is mine…
