So Long, Goodbye

For so long I tried
Comprehending who you had become
And to stop missing
The person I once loved

For so long I feared
I would never get over you
And that the ghost of our past
Would forever haunt my future

For so long I cried
Praying for the memories to fade
And hoping I would forget what we shared
Like you have forgotten me

For so long I wondered
Why I couldn't let go
And why you still held
A piece of my broken heart

For so long
I put myself through hell
And couldn't figure out why
But today an epiphany made everything come full circle

I finally realized what was wrong
Looking back on it all, my dear,
You never fought for me
Never once did you put up a fight

Instead you walked away
Just as quietly as I did
And actually, I fought for our friendship
More than you fought for our relationship

I have said all I can
Any other words
And you don't care to listen
You have moved on

Now its my turn
Not only to move on
But to embrace love and to relish
In the amazing new relationship I am in

So goodbye my dear

We may still be able to be friends
But I am putting our love in the past
For I am finally
Finding the peace through all of the pain

Do Feel

Inside I feel as if we are falling apart And I am the one to blame I don't know if you have sensed it But this is the way I feel I try to stop it You know I love you But I feel as if you are slipping through my fingers And away from my heart I feel helpless and useless There is nothing I can do or say To stop these feelings from coming But I guess that I should feel lucky That my heart still feels at all

Just You

I used to think I would never need a man I guess in some ways that still hold true But there is one big difference I don't need just any man I need you Before I met you I thought I was happy I thought my life had meaning However, I was horribly wrong You came into my life and my soul You made everything ten times better Than it had ever been before You've made me feel Things I have never felt before You kiss me and I melt You place your hand on the small of my back As we walk together And I feel this amazing sense Of peace and comfort All of this to love and enjoy For as long as we live And you saved it all for me How amazing you are in so many ways And yet you remain mine And only mine I love you so very much From now until always

Pigtails, Cartoon Band-Aids, and Crayons

Pigtails, cartoon band-aids, and crayons Life was so much easier back then When we could walk outside Dressed in a striped shirt Paired with polka-dot shorts And no one cared Our mommy fixed our hair Bathed us, cooked for us, Tucked us in tight at night Kissed our foreheads to see if we were warm And made sure no one Hurt "her baby girl" Now we're on our own Mommy can't be there Every time we fall down Fevers and bad hair days Are things we have to fix all by ourselves Boys were super icky Cause of all the cooties They made us cry By calling us mean names And trying to kiss us When the teacher wasn't watching Now boys are irresistible With their muscles and their charm They cause our tears now By causing heartache And taking advantage of us But someday we will find "the one" As we all get older Our innocence and vulnerability Give way to often painful experience We are forever changed Pigtails, cartoon band-aids, and crayons Those were the days
