I Didn't See You
I Didn’t See You

“Oh sorry, I didn’t see you.
You looked so small in that crowd.”
But to be honest,
I saw you and walked away.
You stirred the feelings I’d buried.
Sometimes that’s the price you pay:
You lose someone
And wish for them again.
No, no, no, we’re gone.
We never come back.
Still… I think your dress
Made you beautiful that day.

It hurts to stay in the same place, and even more to admit it's time to move on. But accepting that it's the best decision opens the door of healing. In the end, choosing yourself is always worth it.
