I Realize Now What I Knew Before

I realize now what I knew before
That I do not need you
And I never have
It used to seem like my life revolved around your presence
A planet to its sun
A moon to its earth
And now that we are done
I'm orbiting myself
And the others around me
While you are nowhere in sight
