Hour Six

Who are you, I know not who.
You’re not the person I once knew.
Funny compassionate, witty, and loving,
No longer the same you’re just somebody.
I believed in you and you in me or so I thought,
Together forever, until death we do part.

But something changed when I go sick,
You could not manage and we split.
The loving nature I thought was there,
Had disappeared as if you’d never cared.

Left alone to myself and scared to death,
You never looked back you couldn’t care less.
Eight years now gone, time has passed,
Don’t miss you now it’s like we didn’t exist.

The trials and tribulations I’ve endured,
Survived traumas, dramas, beyond your belief.
Become stronger, wiser, humbled by experience,
And outgrown your pettiness and ignorance.

Despite the challenges I have faced,
My life is calmer a happier place.
Looking back now on your selfishness,
I’m glad to have left your life of disgrace.

Farewell and goodbye, this is now and forever,
You’re the past, not present, not to be my future.
I’ll carry on without you, leaving you far behind,
I’m happier and freer without your kind.
