I need you today
To picking up the pieces,
To sweep the anger and the tears,
To sweep the fear and the frustration.
I need you today,
to come and hug me,
To promise, is the
last time you hurt me.
I need you today, for you to tell me
how much do I need you?
How far my life can go without you?
To tell me, how miserable my existence,
would be without you!
I need you today,
to see you one last time.
To face my fears and tell you,
that I don’t need you anymore.
That I am a vase full of fragrant flowers,
able to put myself together and
I am not broken anymore!
I needed you today…
But it is the time to let you go…
