I was fine

This poem was created on 5/11/09 and obviously based on an ex-boyfriend. :-P

 

"I was fine"

You brought laughter, then tears  to my eyes,

You drove me to madness, left me in sighs.

All because of you, my world's askew,

You changed me completely, that much is true.

Before you, I was  solid, unwavering, and strong,

Now, I'm a mess, uncertain where  I  belong.

Once content and fine, now fragile and lost,

Your presence in my life, a hefty cost.

I was fine before you walked into my life, simple and clear,

But you showed me truths,  unveiled my fear.

Now, I'm reclaiming  what once was mine,

Embracing the clarity, leaving behind the decline.

I was fine before you came, that much is clear,

Now,  without you, I'll find my way,  free from fear.

You're my past, where you rightfully belong,

Moving forward, I'll find my own song.

I was fine before  you,  I'll be  fine once more,

Forgetting you, leaving behind what's in store.
