I feel liberated

Like a heavy burden has been shed

Your love was like a shackle

Heavy and unyielding

Smothering my identity

But the flame that is me is returning

Brighter each day that you're absent

From pain I am learning

And knowledge leaves me exhilarated

I've evolved into a new entity

I am no longer being led

Down a path fear has bred

I'm proud of the future I'm building

Life doesn't feel like a hassle

I'm no longer catering to assholes

The payoff is mine for the earning

Confidence is the sword that I'm wielding

You aren't worth being frustrated

I won't let you fuck with my head

Or have any hold over me

You don't deserve that luxury

Any love we had is null

Voided and dead
