Bend

Today I woke up and had thoughts of you
This process has to take its course
I try to keep my thoughts off of you
As you seem to live with no remorse

My hands are shaky and my heart flutters
Wondering how did this come to be
My every action for so long has been for you
Wondering if you ever considered me

Its okay, I will learn how to get along
I won't be bitter or hate
I will sit and dream of what we could have been
The same as I worked for us to be and now its too late

A heart is rare to find these days
Mine seems to open wider all of the time
Maybe I will heal and find a good heart
One that reciprocates mine

Until then, yes you were my everything
You will burn until gone like a shooting star
I will love you even though you are killing me
I will get by, I will heal from the scar

So this morning, I will say my peace to the page
I will wait no more for a returned word
I will learn to live on and let you go
Knowing that my love was never heard

You will find a new place to be you
Someone to replace my title as a loving friend
I will stand alone with the wind to my back
I will stand taller and won't break or bend
