I'M Not Ready Yet

Even though it's been so long,
Since I last saw you,
Since I last spoke to you,
And I should be over you.
By now, I should be over everything.
What you did to me,
How you made me feel,
How you hurt me...
I should have already moved on,
And yet I can't.
No matter how long it takes,
My heart has not mended itself,
I'm still hurting,
And I'm still broken.
So not only am I still haunted by you,
I can't move on and find another,
Until I'm completely over you;
Until I'm set free...
When that day comes,
When I'm no longer crying,
Those pitiful tears for you,
For now, I'm not ready to move on,
Not just yet...
