You left my heart in fractured dust
Blew a hole in my blinding trust
Chipped away at my confidence
Making me feel like a withering ghost.
Painful choices I have had to make
Now that I know that you are just a fake.
No more waiting for you to change
Moving on to better days.
No more crying, no more tears
Not waiting anxiously, facing my fears
Knowing that something better is there for me
When I find it, I will be set free
