never knew what i went through
even now it's all about you
the lies and stories that you tell
make it seem like you did well
how can you say you love me
after what you did?
some say time heals everyday
but it's been months and i still feel the same
no different than before you left
still broken hearted and a mess
i want it to be over
but it's not
cause no matter what i do
i keep on landing in the same spot
no time to forgive
just i forget
i know it sounds wrong
but it's only for that best
tears hidden away until night
never shed one in that light
grown up to fast
no childhood to last
just have to forget the pain
have to move on
there's no other way
to many tears hidden inside
now it's time to let you go
cause i can't stand to love you

Sounds like you're going through a rough time; and just wanted to say this - in my eyes, time does heal but only if you let it.
I read a wonderful story recently about a man whose daughter died, and he went into a deep depression, weeping for her constantly. Then one night he had a dream where she was an angel, and all the angels were parading in heaven with candles that were brightly lit - but she had none. He grew angry, and in teh dream, asked her why she didn't have one, and she responded, "i did daddy, but your tears kept extinguishing the flame".
The story really touched me; because I felt that it was so true; in order to make time healing, we have to let it. Whoeever did you harm seems to be out of your life now; you don't have to ever forgive them, but in order to get past it, you have to find an allowance somewhere inside that will let you.
Feel free to message me if you wish to talk more

firsatly i would like to say thankyou for entering and being able to write and share you life with me and others, i love the bit 'tears hidden away until night
never shed one in that light ' this is a beutiful line.
life is one long journey with lots of obstacles in the way but also many challenges and horizons.
I think that you are alble to realise and come to terms with your life so far. and that part of the healing journey is to accept that it happend and this i think is what you are doing now, being able to write about it it fantastic and you are very strong.
keep your chin up and i'm here if you ever want to chat.
take care xx and good luck -
An Interesting tale.
may I just say that letting go of hurt by realising that the person causing the hurt is just a tool in your growth. The lessons we get out of life come from people put in our path to teach us. If we can accept that these people are part of a journey you have to take for our learning, then it is easy to learn the lesson and just pass by the hurt that person caused. Move on and live life to the fullest. This may be hard to understand but if you think about it for a while you will see how right it is.
