Happier Now
I lost her suddenly with no explanation,
she left me alone, in isolation.
Was losing her for better or for worse?
I came out stronger, but maybe its a curse.
Everything is different now that she's gone,
I keep running from my problems, its a marathon.
I avoid it all, bury my emotions deep down,
like water, I'm submerged and going to drown.
Strayed from the world-maker, the creator,
becoming a home-body, becoming a hater.
She was like ice, she got smaller with time.
But I don't miss her anymore, is that a crime?
Loved but lonely, living but lost, my light is the fire.
When I say I'm happier now am I a liar?
