Starting Today
Reaching out, feeling like
I’m on the other side.
But still smiling through
the tears I’ve cried.
But now I’m finding myself,
the one I had put on a shelf.
So many questions beg
for me to answer.
The why’s form a constant
rhythm like a dancer.
And yes it is true,
I no longer live for you.
This time I go my own way.
And I’ll get over you
Starting today.
