Over It

Time used to tick in a laggard way.
Then suddenly I met you.
And all my trouble went away.

I stopped mourning the past,
and looked toward the future.
The one who once had me,
wrapped tight around her finger
Now lays in my old but not forgotten days.

I still miss her, but that's normal.
I have Emma here to fill the place.
Someone sincere and not harsh to face.

I feel safe and have learned my lesson.
Don't play with fire for it'll burn you alive.
I'm just a chemical that needs another,
for a reaction to happen.
Maybe one day things will change,
between fire and water.
Cancer and Leo.

But right now I like how I feel.
I feel wanted and not used.
A person can cut you deeper,
then you realize.
I found that out the hard way.

My dear friend I've gotten over you.
Found a person whose the opposite of you.
I realized I made my life around you,
and when you left my world turned to rubble.
Now the ruins have turned to a city,
all filled with life.

I thank you my friend.
Forever I owe you gratitude,
Cause If not for you,
I wouldn't have been able to walk on my own two feet.

To you Lizzy and and for my new friend Emma .M. as well.
