I was lost inside of your heart,
the one that would never come apart.
But that was just one more lie,
I was so into you, needed to say goodbye.
I forgot about my love, stopped writing,
and we never seemed to stop fighting.
I thought you were everything I wanted,
but soon my soul became haunted.
We were so lost into each others worlds,
but I got out fast, started my new world.
I embarked on finding myself and soul,
started trying different roles.
I learned more and more everyday,
and my soul is adrift, and it floats away.
I have learned a lot from you,
and I'll never regret what we went through..
I was lost and now I am found,
finally have I found my own ground..
