The hardest part, It seemed
Was leaving you
It was nothing new,
As the words slipped from my mouth
I couldn't feel them coming out
I thought you were my everything
My anything
You were nothing
All the crying in the world,
Couldn't take away,
The rut you left me in
It's been a month
And I can smile,
It takes awhile
But I know that someday,
I'll find someone new
Someone better than you
It helps me sleep at night
To know that someone,
Somewhere,
May be thinking of me
It's a long shot, really
But we can all dream

I was listening to "The Scientist" by Coldplay as I wrote this, Hence the title.

I really like the last stanza,
It helps me sleep at night
To know that someone,
Somewhere,
May be thinking of me
It's a long shot, really
But we can all dream
Thank you for entering
