Finally

And just like that, I was finally able to move on,

And it seems like the memories I have for you are slowly starting to be gone.

It sucks that it took so long for this to finally come true,

But at the end of the day, there is only so much that I can do.

I loved you, and that is never going to change,

And not having you in my life has felt a little strange.

But it will slowly start to come together once again,

And I will finally realize why me and you had to come to an end.

I met someone new, and for the first time, I am able to put you in the past,

And finally be able to find true love at last.

I am treading very lightly, and that is all thanks to you,

And it is a constant reminder of everything that you put me through.

This is the first person in years who has finally helped me let you go,

And for the first time in four years, it is not just a show.

It is not me pretending to be happy, and pretend to be okay,

And even though it was hard, I would not want it any other way.

Because everything that you put me through needed to take place,

So I can finally see the importance of having my own space.

Because of you, I was able to learn what is truly meant for me,

And it is something that you will never be.

Someone who has a good heart, who is beautiful and who is kind,

And not someone who constantly has other women on their mind.

Someone who knows what they want, and treats me right from the start,

And not someone who enjoys playing games with my heart.

And because of you, it is hard for me to find the strength to trust,

But I know that with time, I will be able to adjust.

I am not going into this one with the same mindset as before,

Because I finally realized that I deserve so much more.

And that people like you are not permanent, but are only meant to be a teacher,

And to show that what you lack, are other people’s finest features.

When it all comes down to it, I think he can teach you a lesson or two,

Because I can already tell that he is so much better than you.
