It feels good to be free of you

Mar 15, 2010 23:16

I’ve been hoping for years that time really would heal everything
I’ve been praying that someday I would wake up and not feel anything
People told me that someday, someday it would be just as I wished
They said, dear, someday you’ll be just fine
The pains would subside
You’ll be able to say goodbye

Someday, you’ll be just fine

I swore day after day, night after night that it wouldn’t be so
That I couldn’t be okay
The pain could never subside
That it was impossible to say goodbye
I’ll never be just fine

It’s been more than couple of years
The days, weeks, months have faded into one another
The dreams and reality have been so hard to discern between
But I saw you for the first time in a long time
I don’t know when it happened

The things that once moved me don't
Is it true, i'm free of you?

And here I am staring at you, staring at things that I used to know so well
Re-reading things I wrote you to see if my heart would stir just a little bit
But finally I’ve arrived
The memories mean nothing
Your laugh, your touch, your closeness I don't even recognize
Without even realizing, something healed me

He made the pains subside
He helped me say goodbye
He told me, I’ll be just fine

I believe him
I believe everything will be just fine for the first time in a long time
