You Wanted Me Gone Poem by Ray Hansell

I never though I'd lose you
I never though you'd walk away
But I'll never forget that day
When you said you couldn't stay

But here I am right now
Alone without you
I can tell you right now
I'm not feeling blue

I got over you so quickly
But I don't understand
That, as deeply as I loved you
I'm not a lonely man

I find that I don't miss you
I rarely think of you at all
The day you walked away
I didn't need no alcohol

Sometimes it scares me
To get over you so fast
Because as I write this
You are already in my past

I haven't found someone new
It's only just been me
When I look into the mirror
I like the man I see

It's nice to be over someone
It's nice not to dwell on them
But every once in a while
I'll be happy we met back then

I've realized one thing
That life must go on
No use wondering about someone
When they're the one who wanted you gone
