Healing After Heartbreak

I was trying to write something about someone that I am starting to like.  I was looking at a blank screen and the verses started coming.  I guess they came out this way because I am still fustrated because my stbx still hasn't severed ties with me but I want to be rid of her.  Either way, this poem came out and with a little editing it has a good flow to it.  Let me know what you think.  THere will probably be a little more editing to be done to the poem but I really like the second stanza.  It is just very powerful and it has a nice smack behind it.   Healing After Heartbreak By, Matthew T. Borders  Now that you’ve seen that I have healedI have moved on and found my lifeYet you still try to exert your willYou are no longer my wifeYou thought that I couldn’t live without youI am doing just fineYet you wish for me to serve youHave you lost your mind  My life is now mine and mine aloneAnd now us is I and I aloneMy ties to you are fading It is my destiny I ownYou guided me to the brinkI came back from the deadAnd soon I will be goneA name not spoken, a name not said  Do not toil in my life any longerDo not stay around wanting to talkWe can not be friendsFor you are the one who decided to walkYet you can’t totally walk awayYou take and take and take some moreBut one day this will all be overAnd we will never be as we were before

This is awesome! You captured perfectly the feeling that comes from having someone decide that they no longer want to give you what they signed up for but they still want you to give and give and give. Theirs is a point of view I will never understand.
