Finally Free

Free from you I’m finally free
To follow the Father’s will
Pleasing you was fun, but I’m finally done
With fearfully standing still.

Ironic that it was my love for you
That kept me from moving ahead
And it was my lack of moving along
That pushed you away instead.

Your dreams and mine were never the same
And now I can finally see
That now that you’re free to be who you are,
I’m finally free to be me

My hurt runs deeper than you may ever know
I wonder if you feel the same way
But when somehow I finally start to let go
I see dawning a new, brighter day

So I hope that you run with your freedom in life
Enjoy your new liberty
And know in the meantime I’m finding it too
I see that I’m finally free.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I finally allowed myself to be honest about the fact that part of me is happy it's over.
