This is me time
To do what I have to do
So please just let me be
I've always been there for you
Yes it's me time
I owe you no apology
You've had nearly all I've got
Now I must be on my way
Because it's me time
I just wanna be on my own
I'll do what's best for me
So I need to be left alone
Yes this is me time
I just need to do some thinking
Some peace and tranquility
You know I won't be drinking
For it's me time
Can you see it in my eyes
I need some time for me
I've always hated goodbyes
This is me time
I can deal with the physical pain
It can't really hurt me
I think I'm just staying sane
This is just me time
I've got to think of number one
Instead of everyone else
To undo all the knots I've done
I just need some me time
Do things I feel I need to do
I've nothing left to give
It isn't me this time it's you.
I need my me time
I am trying to make you understand
That it's not easy being me
So with a virtual wave of my hand
This is me time,
Time for just myself
I'll be in touch some day
When I'm in better health

We all need a bit of ME Time
Comments

Oh My ! I understand this frustration so well. Yes you certainly must have your ME TIME, that is so very important. However, when we actually do get that me time, we get a sudden feeling of loss. Suddenly there is an empty space that is strange after so much pressure. Be careful in that moment because we often fall back into the old ways as a result. Hold firm to your conviction.
Always retain some space no matter what, so history does not repeat itself again.
Thank you for this heart felt entry.
