The Day You Left

The day you left my heart was so broken

No words remained that could now be spoken

As I looked at you with one tear in my eye

I had no energy to break down and cry

I knew this day was coming

But how do you prepare

When you spent so much time

Trying to care

The day you left I felt so lost

Love sometimes comes with misfortune

And cost

Taking deep breaths as a sigh of relief

I can finally breathe again

Now I feel whole

Searching for what was lost

Deep in my soul

The day you left I felt a little at ease

Realizing now I could finally find peace

The day you left was such a relief

It gave me an opportunity to reassess

The idea “time heals all wounds”

Accept the healing is to understand the belief

The day you left I felt so free

To start a new way of thinking

And just do me.
