I'm Done
I'm done waiting in the wind
Hoping that you'll one day come.
I'm done crossing my fingers
And gnawing on my thumb.
I'm done being someone I'm not
tired of letting my heart rot
I've still got a life to live.
I've got nothing left to give
I'm done with saying "I love you"
only for the wind to hear.
So I'm letting go.
Goodbye, my dear.

Aw, thank you so much.
Also, thanks for the song recommendation - I checked it out; it's good! (adds to top playlist *grins*)
I agree with what you said annesgray, have you heard the song "So Long Self" by MercyMe? I think you'd like it. It has the same theme wrapped around it. I can relate wholeheartedly and love this piece!
Favorite line: "I'm done with saying 'I love you'/only for the wind to hear."
Could you check out some of my work?
