It's More About Me Now


It’s More About Me Now
Liann Peragallo

So many tears fall
But just angry at one
I feel so used
And I feel so damn dumb.
Abandonment brings with it
shit from the past
It runs through my head
And it cycles so fast
I can’t determine the start
Or where it began
I just feel what I feel
And do what I can
I need to release it all now
And find what it’s about
I can’t hold it all in
I must let it all out!
The healthy ways
To feel and to cope
Will lead me to joy
And will lead me to hope.
It is not about you,
It is all about me,
I need to work through this
So please leave me be.
I need someone healthy
To be my friend
I need someone who listens
Who doesn’t pretend.
I need someone selfless
Someone that bears
Self-sufficiency confidently
And someone who cares.
The truth is that I love you
but as time passes by
we must find our own paths
and say our goodbyes.
