Changing the stations when I hear our music play,
Pictures and souvenirs, careful stowed away.
Our pillow I used to hug, your shirt I used to wear,
Buried them in a box, then I said a silent prayer.
Trying not to love you, the way I used to do,
Trying not think of us, despite the memories of you.
Trying not to remember, how you made me feel deep inside,
A whole spectrum of emotions, you sure kept my fire alive.
Thanking you for the memories, for the good and the bad,
Hoping the memories I left you won't make you feel so sad.
Thanking you for the blessings, for all the lessons learned,
For the unkept promises that had me scalded and burned.
Getting to my senses, it sure took me awhile,
Convincing myself that all love has its trials.
Proving to all that I will never give up on us,
When my soul was in turmoil, creating such fuss.
Red flags all over yet I was too stubborn to see,
Focused completely on my undying love for thee.
Blinded and smitten by your witty and romantic charms,
No matter what happens, I always end up in your arms.
Trying not to love you, the way I used to do,
Though you will always be a part of me, this I promise you.
Trying not to remember, how hard we both tried,
How hard we used to laugh, how heavy we cried.
Rekindling our love was a sport we got to master,
Barely realizing our love was headed for disaster.
Passion abounds as we loved each other deeply,
Only to realize we've lost ourselves completely.
How can a love that felt so right be so wrong?
In my heart and in my head, I questioned all along.
How can I love without losing myself in the process?
Inner work I must do, inner wisdom I must access.
The road less traveled is not always the easiest path,
But it’s the journey we must take despite our inner wrath.
Going deep within, we'll find our inner peace,
Clarity we decipher, questions will cease.
Trying not to love you, the way I used to do,
Because now I know better, now I see a clearer view.
I will always lose myself when I don't honor my soul,
Find the path that leads to peace, I finally feel whole.
