It's Okay

It's okay to move on from someone,
And still wonder why they acted so dumb.
It's okay if you think you are over them,
But at the very mention of their name, sadness may stem.

It's okay to still wonder why they made you doubt,
And why they left you feeling inside out.
It's okay to have a moment of glee,
Then remember, they made you feel unworthy.

It's okay to think you've moved along,
Only to remember that their love was a painful song.
Healing doesn't mean all the hurt's in the past,
It means knowing you deserve better at last.

Healing doesn't mean we've reached a bright dawn,
It means accepting they were wrong, they're gone.
Being over them doesn't mean you've forgiven and forgotten,
It means they don't deserve your heart, now enlighten.

Know that healing's path isn't a straight line,
Some days feel like a mountain you've climbed.
And the other days the progress feels halted or a bit slack,
But that's alright, you're still on the right track.

One day you'll say their name without a tear,
Without feeling like you're choking on fear.
I promise, that day will surely come near.
