Why must you make “this” so hard for ME to do?
If YOU ever really loved me,
You would know that the best thing for ME
Is for “us” to be through!

I loved YOU unconditionally
But not “myself” enough
I gave YOU all of me,
Which left ME without much!

Your selfishness was “cause”
For the dismissal that has taken place
My life is starting a new course,
In a bigger and better place

I have began to walk again
But at a whole different pace
I am singing to a new tune,
And swaying to a different beat
I am snapping my fingers and tapping my feet

OH MAN DOES THIS FEEL GOOD

Who’d ever knew loneliness could make one feel so complete
The rid of deadweight makes me feel ten pounds HAPPIER
And instead of a slump and frown all of my encounters are now greeted with a smile
To shine with self love all within
Is a wonderful feeling,
That I will never be convinced to trade in

Oh do I just want to shout!
And tell the world all about
My new love that I have found
That does not fill me with doubt or insecurities
Of some dumb a**’s infidelities

But of this new love I have found
Right here within me
It has been gone for so long
But man is it back

And in full force and swing
And will never surrender
To another’s attack
I am certain of this now

Cause of a new found friend
That just wont let me be subjected
To pain and discontent ever again
Now it is myself who I give all my love to
And in return it has given me inner strength
To never be subjected to another’s self-centeredness again
