Defined

Defined

A Poem by Haley Lynn Thomas

I'm not disappointed that you're gone

But I'm not quite relieved either

I'm not sure I know how to feel

 

I'm not elated that I'm alone again

But I'm not sitting in a corner crying, either

Because this time around I'm stronger than that

 

I feel like I'm defined by you

Like you're a stain I can't get clean

And all I want is to break free

 

But as much as I wanted to leave

For the longest time I kept coming back

Now I know I can't do that

 

I don't believe in you anymore

And you don't believe in me

So let's do what we should have a long time ago

 

I don't want to be defined by you

I want to remove the stain

And I hope that someday they'll feel the same
