You Are a Memory of a Well Learned Lesson

Sitting here all alone 
Getting lost in my head 
Wandering off in the fields of your game  
Soaked by the pouring rain of your lies 
Burned by the pain spreading like a wild fire
Silent tears aflow speeding down to lakes 
I am left stranded on the brink of drowning 
alone

Lost in my dark world 
Dwelling on the past 
Letting anger boiling in my heart 
My mind is on fire spitting harsh words
I am miles away from forgiving 

Time speeds away and tomorrow becomes today
Still you are rewinded in my head 
And time and again sitting in my own pool of tears 
Never realized how much precious time had slipped away stealing a piece of me into damnation 
 
I am hurt 
I am broken 
I am sad
And I am worn out 
So today I am going to care for me
I am forgiving you to fade out of my mind

From this day on you are a memory of a well learned lesson 
Today I am walking with my head up
and smile like I just received a box of Macadamia chocolate 
I am free and I'm gonna love me more
Peace out... 

Smile
