I have been burned before.
Love has left scars that never seem to heal.
Pain that never seems to go away.
But I know that it wont last forever.
Because someday, I will meet someone new.
One day, I will meet someone who will keep their promises.
Thoughts of doubt will no longer run through my mind.Was I too much?
Did I come on too strong?No.
Because, despite how the saying goes, it wasnt me, it was you.
Time has taught me that excuses are just guilt wrapped in shame.
Only the weak try and hurt you to conceal their failings.
One day, I will meet someone who will mean what they say and say what they mean.
Honesty is all I ever wanted.
Respect for one another shouldnt be so hard.
And yet, for you, it was impossible.
Trying to find out your intentions was confusing.
You made me question my mind, my integrity, my everything.
You never let me feel like I could breathe.
But in spite of what youd said, I hadnt done anything wrong.
You brought out the worst in me.
Freezing me out made me someone Im not.
Second-guessing you made me crumble.
But one day, I will meet somebody who will free my soul instead of caging it.
They will liberate my mind and they will awaken my spirit.
Then in time, I will once again learn how it feels to be able to breathe.
One day, I will meet someone who will make me laugh instead of cry.
A conversation wont turn in an unfamiliar direction.
Eggshells wont be walked on.
I will know where I stand.
My voice wont rise in pitch in fear of your anger.
Whats done is done.
Because now its been sorted therell be no need to hold grudges, and thats how it should be.
One day, I will meet someone who will allow me to be the best version of myself.
Instead of fearing to show them all of what makes me, me, I will embrace it.
Laughter will be my favorite song when they giggle at my silly ways and crazy thoughts.
A person thats a far cry from somebody like you.
One day, I will meet someone good and I wont believe my luck.
Your presence in my head is nothing but a ghost from a distant past.
A glorious future is here, and nothing can stop me now that Im free.
One day, I will meet someone new and Ill be glad to have gone through all that pain.
