Moving on - Soul Blues Icon
Lyrics by：Joyce Benie Akromah
Composed by：Joyce Benie Akromah
I woke up today
And your name didn't hit me
Before my feet touch the floor
I didn't check my phone
For a messages that wasn't coming
Didn't rehearse the apology
I never got to say
I made coffee in that chip mug you hated
Sat by the window
Let the morning light
Covered the last place that you stood
When you said you couldn't stay
For once
The silence didn't feel like punishment
It felt like space
Space I've been avoiding
Because I was scared of what healing
Might ask me
But today for the first time in longer than I've met
The age didn't feel like on me
This is the day I finally let you go
Not out of anger
Not out of spite but because holding on
Started costing me pieces of myself
I needed to keep
I'll always keep the part of my life
That had your name in it
But I'm done trying to build a future
Out of memories
This is the day I give myself back
I walk past the park
Where we used to sit on Sundays
I didn't avoid this time I sat on the same bench
Trace the initials carved by strangers
Felt the wind move across my hands and realized
Not every place you touched has the hurt
I watched a little girl
Chase a bird across the path
Her father laughing behind her and I thought
Life keeps going even when we don't feel ready
Maybe that's okay
Maybe that's the point
I used to think letting go meant losing everything
Now I see this open in your hand
After holding on too tight for too long
This is the day I finally let you go
Not because you were worth loving
But because I was worth saving too
I can't carry what we have
Without dragging the past behind me
I can't remember you
Without breaking every time I do
Today I step out of the story
I kept rewriting my head
And start living the one that's mine
I'll never pretend
It didn't matter you did
You changed me you taught me
You cracked me open
In ways that hurt and healed at the same time
But some chapter are meant to stretch in forever
Some love is meant to be learned from not lived in
And I'm done living in yesterday
So here it is the quiet truth I finally earned
Moving on isn't forgetting
It's accepting it's breathing again
It's choosing a future
It doesn't rely on your shadow to make sense
Of the light
This is the day I finally let you go
And this time
I'm letting myself go too
Hmmmmmmmm
Hmm
