Time healed me. Time erased you When you left - I was walking the diving board to the deep end. When you knew I couldn't swim. These days my heart actually pumps, powerfully. As I paddle my own way through the waves of life. When you left I found my glow. Got the lead role in my own damn show now and your cut from the scene. I do back flips in the spot where you used to lay. I light my candles and hum sweet notes Replacing my whisky worries. I don't hate you. It's better this way. You being there- as time drys my tears.
