I feel backed into a corner and yet freer than before
I’m letting go of what I need and closing this old door.
My heart once was in shards, each needing to be put in place
It beat and raced within my chest each time I saw your face.
But now the time has come when I must stand on my own feet
The times we shared are memories I don’t wish to delete.
I hope that you will think of me and smile with no regret
Because you are one person that I know I won’t forget.
I will miss your cheek against my skin and touch that was so gentle
I will miss the times when stupid jokes seemed so sentimental.
I will miss the love I cannot share I will miss what we went through
I will miss the words I longed to hear
I really will miss you
