Free to please myself

I watch them cross the street,
He smiled and kissed her cheek,
Somehow, I stayed discreet.
Inside I was screaming.
They held hands as they walked,
Both smiling as they talked,
It’s time that he was caught.
Why should I feel this pain?
Denies he's met someone,
Says it's just a bit of fun,
Tells me that I'm the one,
I no longer believe him.
I cannot take this pain,
He’s lying yet again,
Tells me that I'm to blame,
Can't live with his ego.
Things simply can't remain,
Something has gotta change,
Avoid the endless fights,
Don’t need the sleepless nights,
Stories hard to believe,
It's time for him to leave,
I need some sanity,
Don't want more excuses.
And once more I saw.
He'll never change his ways.
He's so wrong, now gone,
I never want to see him.
It's better on my own,
Switched off my mobile phone,
Enjoy my peaceful home.
Spending some time alone.
Can do things when I need.
With no one else to please
No longer on my knees
No more feelings of doubt
I’ve restored my mental health,
He's now with someone else,
And I am now content.
And free to please myself.
