Realize [letting go]

Once upon a time I thought,
That you were all I had.
Now I’ve began to realize,
Life without you isn’t so bad.

It’s been about a week,
Since I shed my last tear for you.
I’m slowly beginning to realize,
I’ve a million things to do.

I can go out with friends,
And stay out too late!
Get overly excited,
About a first date.

I can go to the movies,
And watch what I want to see.
Or sit down and relax,
Whenever it suits me.

I can be bitchy,
After a long day at work.
And not have to hear,
Another smart ass remark.

I can hold the remote,
When I watch TV.
Pick whenever I want,
To take it easy.

Listen to the radio station,
That I want to hear.
Be who I want to be,
Without losing you, to fear.

Shedding more tears,
Due to more goodbyes.
Letting go is much easier,
That- I now realize.
