And Then I Was Free

I loved you
And then I didn't
It wasn't when you betrayed me
Or even when you left me
Not the day you came back either
It came all of a sudden 
I woke up and didn't miss you
That was the day I stopped loving you 
I realized I deserved better 
I was worth more
I deserved love
And truth
And that wasn't you 
Then I knew
I didn't love you anymore 
And I was finally free

Unfortunately he had a way of constantly pulling me back in just to break me all over again. Took a while to realize I deserved more then he would give
