Someone to Love You True

I need to say a thing or two
Let’s see, how do I start
As I know when I’m finished
You will have a broken heart.

The pain of my broken marriage
Is still hurting within my heart
I’ve tried to get rid of it
But, it just won’t seem to part.

I thought I might be ready
To move on with someone new
Only for me to realize
That it’s really hurting you.

I know that I’m not ready
Have never lived alone
I think now is the time
The time to find my own home.

I must find out who I am
Start living for myself
Instead of living for others
And putting my life on a shelf.

I hope you’ll try real hard
To understand just how I’m feeling
I must move on with my life
I must begin the healing.

I wish you the best in life
Hope you find someone new
Someone who will love you
Someone to love you true.

Susan*
Every poem of yours that I have read has
held something special in it's weave...this
one is definately not an exception to that...
You penned these feelings and this moment
with ache and honesty..penned with your
heart~

Sunshine & Butterflies dont Cry:  Thank you for the comments. They are very much appreciated.  The poetry I read from both of you has truly touched my heart.  I have loved them all and feel the words from the heart.

Courage! This is what your poem speaks to me about...the courage to be ony our own when its so much easier to lean on someone else.
  I enjoyed your work here, susan...well written and your words an inspiration.

Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.
