Surviving Heartbreak

Never Again

I'll never do the things we did,

With anyone else the same,

Won't laugh as hard or love as deep,

As I once did when I spoke your name.

But I won't cry as often either,

Won't let my heart be torn,

I won't give all of me away

To someone who leaves me worn.

I've learned not to settle,

For half-hearted love or doubt,

I'll wait for someone who wants it all—

Not just pieces to figure out.

So yes, I may drive by those places,

Where memories echo of you,

But I won't settle for anything less

Than the love I know I'm due.

Not anymore,

Never again.
