I never thought that

After all this time,

I would be okay again.


I was under the impression

That you would be the only person

My mind,

My world,

My heart,

Could revolve around.


When you broke me,

I thought I was done.

I thought I was stuck,

Because you kept chasing after me,

But I run faster than you do.


There you are,

Still in my mind,

But filed under a different category.

Instead of lover,

You're now my teacher,

My mistake,

Perhaps I'll add friend one day.


But for now,

I won't forget 

What you did to me,

And how you hurt me.

No one forgets when they have been used

And broken,

Brusied,

And taken for granted.


You used to be my darling,

But now,

I'm falling, 

Spiraling,

Dancing

In love again.

And it's not with you.


He treats me right,

Wishing me goodnight,

Like what you used to do.

Now those memories are sour,

And I'm unfriending you on whatever I can.


I was trying to forget you-

How can you forget someone

Who used to be your whole world?

Now I realize,

I need to remember you.

I need to remember the bad times

So I know how amazing the good ones feel.


Thank you for teaching me

How hard life is,

But also helping me discover

How strong I am,

How I can bounce back,

How I can be okay.


You used to be the reason I got up in the morning,
