Freedom

Finally, I have the freedom That comes with forgiveness. No longer will I dwell on the past Or the marriage I blamed on ruining my life. I see now it was my choice I knew you had problems You were beyond my help though. You presented a false front But I knew you were a liar. The whole beginning of our relationship Was built on a lie, I'd have accepted the truth And I chose to let it go. Something I'd normally never do. Scared of being alone? Or the heartless No second-chance giver. Now, two years divorced, I see To hold on to the anger has been poisonous. I can't keep letting it ruin me. I need to be able to trust to be able to move on, I need to not be afraid of what you did. Because not all men are like you. Even though most of the ones I dated were wrong for me. I have met a lot of good ones But I haven't given any a chance In case they were wearing a mask. So to move on, I must forgive you And I truly hope you're doing well. Sometimes I wish we could have stayed friends But you wanted all or nothing. So I don't know anything about you now. I wish I could tell you I wish you had picked to remain.
