Dear Ex

By: Melissa Susan Hensley

Long forgotten moments.
Tears already shed.
Nightmares- just a memory-
now I dream instead.

I often think of you,
and how it used to be,
but I don't miss a thing.
I am content with me.

Harsh words spoken still,
yet, they pass me by.
You can't hurt me anymore,
no matter how you try.

Reminders of the past
bring a smile to my face.
My heart has finally healed.
I have no empty space.

I'm happy with my life,
the past has helped me grow.
You were just a lesson
on love... and letting go.
