Resigned is what you are
You are humbled at last
And I can't be more thankful
That the fighting is in the past.
There's a sense of calm I feel
Residing within you now
You have for once, found peace,
But I can't figure out how
To move past the paranoia
Of the world crashing down,
Because at any given moment
I could be pushed in to drown
Into a puddle of drama
That never seems to fade
Because for so so long,
You had to have your point made
That I was in the wrong
And that gave you the right
To invade my privacy and my life
In order to win this fight.
But why did it have to be a fight?
And you lost, was it worth it?
I guess you realized this.
So you backed off a bit.
I'm so glad you've moved on
That you've finally let it all go
But it's hard for me to do the same
When I know what I know.
Do you know the damage
That you caused from all that?
Do you even remember
All of the words that you spat?
They were heavy and harsh
And they play in my mind
And my trust that I once had in you
Is going to be hard to find.
I know you've moved on
And I can feel that within you
That's great and I am glad, but I,
I still have healing to do.
