Cutting Ties

The ties that I cut

To carve out my peace

It’s been almost a year

I’ve made it this far

~

The habits I broke

To keep myself sane

The time that it took

I’ve made it this far

~

The places I left

To keep us away

It got very quiet

I’ve made it this far

~

The days that we cross

acquaintances we share

The silence gets mad

But I’ve made it this far

~

The events that take place

When you are around

I close my eyes waiting

Cause I’ve made it this far

~

My peace is not optional

But our friendship sadly was

I see you haven’t changed yet

You have further to go.
