Release To Renew

You are in everything I do, through every day, From the clothes I wear, and the words I say. I can't complain for I love you like no other, Captivated my dreams, it's you my gorgeous lover. Can you still recall my touch, the depths of our kiss, The moments I swore that love was made of this. Miss you so, though I picked up and had to start a new. You're what was and I'm so glad she's not you, Trying to release your memory, so I may be fair to her. Her tenderness releases what makes me bitter. Her kisses melt away the pain you left behind, She's all I need, something I've learned with time. Her words fill more true, the more you fade away, No convincing needed for she'll win what you gave away. So many wanted what you had, and now I'm happy, You're a memory I will let go, for I'm no longer lonely. I'm growing stronger a testament to the gazes I catch, My inner confidence awaken because you hated that. I don't care, that you'll never hear this from me. I've poured out my heart before still you set me free. Here's my new leaf and thanking God for being blessed, Here's to me and her, because I can lay you to rest. Cause she causes me to grin on the inside, so see my smile, You, I did love, but your love hasn't been here for awhile.
