FREE TO PLEASE MYSELF

I watch them cross the street,
He smiled and kissed her cheek,
Somehow I stayed discreet,
Inside I was screaming. 

They held hands as they walked, 
Both smiling as they talked,
It’s time that he was caught,
Why should I feel this pain. 

He denies he\'s met someone,
Says it\'s just a bit of fun,
Tells me that I\'m the one,
I no longer believe him.

I cannot take this pain,
His lies are always the same, 
Tells me that I\'m to blame,
I can\'t live with his ego.

Things simply can\'t remain,
Something has gotta change, 
Avoid the endless fights, 
Can\'t take the sleepless nights,

Stories hard to believe,
It\'s time for him to leave,
I need some sanity,
Don\'t need more excuses.

And once more I saw
He\'d never change his ways
He\'s so wrong  - Now gone
I never want to see him

It\'s better on my own,
Switched off my mobile phone,
Enjoy my peaceful home,
I need some time alone. 

Can do just what I please,
Exactly when I need,
With no one else to please,
No more feelings of doubt.

Restored my mental health,
He\'s now with someone else,
And I am now content
And free to please myself.
