Growth
I'm trying to grow into a new me
The day we'd end I thought I'd never see
But silly tried to make it work when clearly we're through
Because I knew in the end I'd wind up missing you
But still I yearn to grow
So I try to address you with pure maturity but your appreciation doesn't show
Why does it have to be ALL or NOTHING
I know our relationship is gone, but that doesn't explain why our friendship is dying
With everyday that we grow apart
It's another jab to my caring heart
But still I try to grow
Now all contact is lost and gone
Now loneliness has found a permanent home
Is this really progress shown ?
Or is the growth in
admitting I was wrong ?
