How many tears must I shed to cleanse myself of you?

I can embrace myself, hold my own hand, love me - but I can't gaze into my own eyes and feel my own soul lift me up.

I'm hurting so bad inside, I wish you could see. I'm struggling to be someone that isn't even close to me.

I would like to stay a secret, like walking in the dark, if no one knows you, no one cares and no one breaks your heart.

I just realized, it's so lonely being free.

Moving on is simple, it's what you leave behind that makes it so difficult.

I know what it's like to feel alone, and that's why I stay alone, so I'll never feel alone again.

It took the death of hope for me to let you go. If you still care, don't ever let me know.

I'm better when you're gone.

And so I'm writing this poem
I'm hoping that the words will do
Hoping that they'll help me get it
That he's just not that into you.
