Turning a New Leaf

My heart aches day and night...24/7 I can't sleep at night and how can I I can't live my life and as each day passes I get weaker and weaker You've been gone for a year and it still hurts I just imagine what you're doing right now without me You've probably forgotten about me by now Still till this day I have no idea why you left me You never spoke to me, you just shut me out completely At that moment I was confused and at the same time I despised you for it You weren't the same man that I fell in love with a year ago What happened to you? Us? Please explain to me what made you push me away I became depressed, lost, weak and unloved What you did to me made me not want to trust any other man ever Whatever you are doing now, I hope that you're happy... If so...you ruined another's life I can still feel your warm hands sliding against mine Your smile that can make a room glow without a doubt Your voice that sounds so trusting and safe to speak to I loved that about you Sometimes...actually all the time I'd cry because of what you did to me My own friends and family hated you, but who wouldn't Time has passed and I've forgiven you for what you've done I turned the other cheek and I'm feeling unstoppable My phrase, "No one will put me down ever again." - not even you I'm living my life solo and I'm making a name for myself People cry every day after being let down in a relationship I know for a fact that I'll never be crying again for a man because I'm strong I'm invincible and I can handle the world on my own With faith and prayer, you can go a long way and God will have someone in store for you That man that I once cried for is history and will stay that way My new man with soon come and will keep me at ease Strength... Trust... Honesty... That's all a woman needs to keep her warm at night with a man
