I Will Be Fine

I Will Be Fine

The clouds of darkness are slowly lifting,
The daylight is no longer dim.
I can see the sunlight,
Starting to peek in.

Is it a new perspective
Of a lesson learned ?
Am I over the heartbreak,
Of feeling I was spurned ?

I dwelled in the darkness,
For a long time.
Now I realize it made me stronger,
And I will be fine.

The situation was hopeless,
From the very start.
I should have seen it coming,
We were bound to part.

He showered me with compliments,
Lies and more lies,
Flattery and understanding
Seemed to stop all the goodbyes.

I let down my guard,
And got swept away,
It was too rushed,
I dreamed of the somedays.

He just disappeared on me.
The pain was so bad,
There was no closure,
I had been had.

I have now stopped wondering,
I know he`s just a jerk.
Gets his pleasure conning women,
He was a piece of work.

I will survive, I am strong,
The pain has eased because I now know.
He was scum who lied and abused my feelings,
But in the end we all reap what we sow.

What goes around comes around,
He'll get his reward someday.
I hope he finds someone he loves,
And she does it to him the same way.....
