I put you in a box today.
I'm sorry that you could not stay.
It is sad that things will never change,
But I am better off this way.

I put you in a box today.
I thought about calling you to say
My life without you seems so strange,
But I am better off this way.

I put you in a box today
And as I put the box away,
I realized you are estrange
And I am better off this way.


The author's comments:
I wrote this about moving on from a bad relationship. The boy that I was dating was condescending, pompous, and self-involved. I finally decided almost a year after the relationship had ended that I needed to forgive myself and continue living my life.
