Starting Anew

I wish for once I'd get it right
so the pain could fade away
but as I look towards the dawn
I'm consumed by shades of gray.
I try to be simply me
but through your distorted view
all I see, a part of me,
someone I never knew.
I tried to change to someone else
stupid as it may sound
yet through your deceptive mind games
the true me is who I found.
Someone stronger than I assumed
could come from deep within
no afraid to say good-bye
so wipe off that winning grin.
I've moved on and I've moved up
no longer needing your fake embrace
thought I couldn't live without you
and now you've fallen from my grace.
Now as the mist unfolding
with the sunlight setting in
I relish in the memories
that'll never live again.
