Every day I start again

On this journey that never seems to end

You started me on

This when you left me before dawn

Even though it hurts me to say

I am glad that you went away

If you hadn’t I would not

Have started on this journey, I would still miss out on a lot

Every day I get to find myself again

By the time I go to bed, my energy has gone down the drain

I learn more about me every day

I can do what I want, you don’t have a say

No matter where this journey leads

I know that I am free

I know that we will never be

Back together, you and me

Everyday I have to fight

With the scars you left me with that night

Always, you said

That the only thing I was good for was in bed

I know better now

Something I have had to learn for myself somehow

Always you try

To make me feel that way again and make me cry

You no longer have the power to

Do all the things to me you used to do

Even though I don’t date

To move on, I don’t need a mate

Just being with our girls

Is enough for me in this world

Because I have gone on this journey

I know I don’t need anybody

But if I happen to

Find a love that is true

I will be better off

Because of this journey you have sent me through
