You Thought

How could something
so right and so true,
be so wrong and make
me think of you.
I gave you everything
I had. It all just seems
to make you mad.

I'm not all that glad
you are gone,
but I will live on.
I don't think of you
anymore when I look
forward to the dawn.
I'm free and it's
kinda scary.

I had you for so long I
forgot myself
and why I was not gone.
On my own and all alone,
is probably best for me.
You made promises you
couldnt keep, but I can
take a leap into my life.

With you really gone and
me on my own,
I can finally be me and not
who you made me be.
You never were the key.
I was your pawn in your
games of lies.
As the old me dies,
a new me can rise.

I may despise you in some
ways but you can be stuck
in your own maze, in your
own daze. Play your game
and tell me how lame it
really is.

You were always too
good to be true.
You thought I needed you,
and you thought you needed
me too.
