Living Without You

I try to find reason
in this madness
you've left me
I never needed
a man in my life
absolutely
I wasn't single
just independent
I wanted the love
the connection
that we all seek
but I accepted
and made myself content
being me and knowing me
and not knowing the me
that was with you
*
Now I'm back to
being me
-without
-alone
and see how
much I've grown
with you
and with out.
