Time stood still
As you walked away from me
All I could hear were your footsteps
Confident, happy, relieved

Time stood still
As you uttered those words
“I don’t want you.”
But my heart will not break this time

This time I walk away
With my head held high
Knowing that I can do better
That I have done better

I will survive this
And be better for it
I will find that special someone
That will love me for me
That will make me happy

Because I know that I am worth it
I am worth the effort
The love
The respect

You will come to see
That I was the best thing for you
But you were not the best thing for me
This I know
