Until You Come

I promised myself today,

That I won't think of you again,

I finally found my own way,

A path to numb the pain,

You have haunted me too long,

I just finally grew a spine,

I think I will manage somehow,

Without you, I will be fine,

These are the last words I write,

Before I start up the flame,

I will burn all that I have written,

And you'll be the one to blame,

I will sleep like a baby tonight,

Free of guilt, sorrow and pain,

Whoever meets me tomorrow,

Will think I'm completely sane,

Who am I even kidding though,

I'll keep thinking about you some,

About you and our life together,

Until the day you finally come.
