Time Heals All Wounds

I was broken for so long because of you,

Regretted everything I did and didn't do.

What could I have changed to make it right?

What if I had slept with you that night?



I died inside each time I saw your face,

The glimmer in your eyes had been erased.

No hint of love or caring to be found,

You turned your back as I lay crumpled on the ground.



I realized that I was better off without,

That real love should not begin in doubt.

So I got off my knees and dusted off my heart,

I took my lesson and made a brand new start.



Months went by and nothing had been said,

The memories of you grew fuzzy in my head.

Then out of the blue on the street one night,

My eyes caught hold of a familiar sight.



You smiled over and called my name,

As though you'd never caused me pain.

I walked towards your shining face,

And you held me in a warm embrace.



Then I couldn't remember a single lie,

And I felt no anger as I stood at your side.

We were simply two friends beneath the moon,

It's true when they say that time heals all wounds.
