My truth

It took me two years to realize
that I'm better off alone
that you just bring me down
that I'll survive all on my own

Took so long to realize
that your so wrong for me
that your love was not pure
that this dream just couldn't be

I've tried hard to forget
erase all traces of you
all we once were
the things we didn't get to do

the memories which haunt me
every night I go to sleep
the reality I live in
changes in my dreams

your voice I hear
when I begin to close my eyes
your face that appears
when things aren't going right

knowing you won't be there
no matter how much I need you
that i no longer matter
that is my life, my truth.
