today

is a brand new day
the day i realized i wished to
be as passionate and steadfast
about my future
as i am about you

not easy as it seems
still struggling against these emotions
i wish i didn't have of you
and of others because
none of you deserve this

can feel the dynamic change
a sudden shift when you leave the room
relief and resignation at the same time
but i've learned
love shouldn't be this way

today i'm getting better
slowly detaching myself from
all the care i put into you
i could push away completely
cut away all that is you
but i can't be so cruel to you
or to me
