Confronted fears

It was the morning that you left me

Abandoned, alone, for dead

That I realized I didn’t need you.

—

I said it abandoned, I said it alone

I thought it inside my head

It was the morning that you left me.

—

The light no longer shone

Because of the words that you’d said-

That I realized I didn’t need you.

—

The actions I’d thought you’d own

Returned pulsing through my head

It was the morning that you left me.

—

Clarity came with a groan

A gasp as I lay there and bled

That I realized I didn’t need you.

—

And now I enter into the unknown

Without a single ounce of dread

It was the morning that you left me

That I realized I didn’t need you.
