You were once a dream that became a goal
All these teen movies made me crave you
Everyone around me already had someone to hold,
Someone to call their own
I waited and waited but you never came
Should I hold onto you?
I told myself you’ll come along
I told myself I didn’t have to worry
But each time I say it drops into the pile of lies I’ve told
You took place in all my daydreams,
My math knowledge was replaced with my perfect image of you
But life won’t let me have you
I thought I knew the reason
That I had to be this perfect image
But no matter what I do
I’ll never be enough
For something you gave out so easily
I was never allowed to touch
I am starting to realize I’ll never have you
It’s been 17 years so it’s time I give up
I going to stop this quest
Stop this obsession I’m finally going to let myself be free
I don’t need you
Your destructive nature can’t hurt me anymore
Your expectations of me doesn’t matter
You’re nothing to me
It’s finally an end of an era
At last I can say
Goodbye my love


I myself can relate to your writing. For a while I was stuck on the idea that this person it my life was the greatest woman ever. Every mean and hurtful thing she said was to help me become stronger and it was good for me. I finally allowed myself to not be stuck in her toxic grasp so I too can be free.
