To Who I Was

by: EJ

The drive home gets longer and drawn out,

I know what to expect there,

Knowing where I'm not wanted,

I drive the roads here,

The same roads,

The same car,

That she spent so much time coming here,

To cheat on me,

Ironic how this is my home now,

I get lost on so many streets,

I see endless possibilities,

Knowing I can heal here,

Pushing me to never go back,

Back to the me that I hated,

To the person I became,

The side she brought out in me,

The person I never want to see again,

Some just don't understand,

Going back would be a death sentence,

To drown in my own misery,

To suffocate on the bitter air around me,

If you knew who I once was,

You don't know who I am now,

And you'll never know me ever again.
