Listening To My Heart - Poetry/Lyrics

Poem 37 {On My Own Two Feet}

Oh today it's a new day.

I've been broken and bruised,

And only now can I come out into the sunshine

And I can return a smile.

I'm holding on and I'm accepting this change.

I'm realising I don't need you.

Ha, that's right I'm realising I don't need you.

Cause like my mamma said

There are plenty more fish in the sea.

And there is a better one out there, just wait and see.

I'm smiling and laughing,

And I feel beautiful and I don't need your affection to feel it.

I'm no fraud; I'm falling back to myself,

I'm finding my way home, back to me and happiness.

I'm not there, but I can see it and feel it,

It's just outside this door.

And the best part?

I've done it without you.

That's right I'm something,

Even without you.

Cause you aint my prince charming,

You sure don't deserve my smile

And you don't mean a cent to me.

You keep the past and memories, I don't want it.

I want the future, every little step and pleasure,

Not involving you.

Cause yea I realised I'm more beautiful and myself,

Without you.

I don't need you nor your smile to ease through.

I have made it this far without you have I not?

So get.

That's right, get.

I'm laughing and smiling in the mirror,

My happiness and change is echoing off me.

Cause now?

You're nothing.

Now you're my past.

Now you're not good enough for me.

Cause now I'm back.
