Forward Thinking

It’s time I started afresh,
Put the past behind me
And look ahead.

This year has been like a rollercoaster,
My emotions floating up and down
But I must start thinking positively

No more crying myself to sleep,
I have promises that I must keep
I’ve shed enough tears for you

Though our time together was brief,
You caused me a great deal of grief
Is it any wonder I’m in this state?

You’ve made it perfectly clear
That I’m not wanted in your life,
But I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you

We haven’t spoken in almost a year,
But you don’t seem to care
Maybe I shouldn’t either.

I’ve become a recluse.
Shut myself away from my peers
Destined to be alone forever

That is going to stop
From this day forth
I will not dwell on the pain.
