20 weeks Since we Met
15 weeks Since We Said We Would
2 weeks Since YOU Left and
4 Months and Counting until the Day that My Life Will Never be the Same Again.
The " Probation Period" I Call it,
Until My " Life Sentence " Begins!

" You and Me we made a Vow,For Better or for Worse. I CAN'T Believe YOU let me Down. But the Proof's in the way it Hurts..."

Singing along to the Sam Smith song, I sit on the floor looking at Myself in the Mirror. My intention was to Stretch my legs but instead I Felt Someone Staring at me. I Started Feeling Self Conscious, Until I Realized WHO it was.

It was a Woman I Used to know Very Well. Someone who Stood her ground and Saw People for Who they Really Were, No B.S. ever Passed By her! Always Putting Her Foot Down and NEVER Becoming a Statistic, a VICTIM she SWORE she Would NEVER be Again! That's the Woman who was Staring at Me. I look Closer and that Person, that Woman Disappeared! I look Around to see if I Can Find her, But She Was Gone. I Look Forward, Back at the Wall to Wall Mirror and there She Was. Trusting, Independent, Sassy When she Needed to be, Loyal, Honest and Most Importantly Confident! That's Who She Is or at Least Was. Shaking My Head that Woman Disappeared Again!

That's Who I was!
That's Who I Proud Myself to Be!
But it Seems that as Each week Passes by,
That Woman is NO WHERE to be Found!

" You Say I'm Crazy, Cause you DON'T think I know WHAT You've Done!
But When YOU Call me Baby, I Know I'm NOT THE ONLY ONE! "
