A Moment

Poetry

I just need a moment

A moment to say goodbye

So long to all the false hope

I won't miss those lips

Full of sweet lies

I won't miss the pacing, heart racing

Checking the phone

Or waking in the middle of another night

Know you left me there again, alone

I won't miss trying to make this heart your home

Farewell to all your sad excuses

To all your selfish reasons

So long to all the sad songs

And searching through

All these broken pieces

I'm taking back all my light you've stolen

I just need a moment

A moment to say goodbye

Before I can really let these wings out to fly.
