Finally

I'm finally doing it
I'm walking out the door
he finally admitted
he doesn't want this anymore.
I don't know what kept me here
I've known this for so long
but I felt I had to stay
to prove that we were strong
and I was wrong.
i didn't know when I made this choice
it would uncover my shadowed soul
but I feel excited for the future
realizing I don't need this man to
make me whole.
It's going to be a tough journey
walking this long road home
but I'll get there someday
and no longer feel alone.

Great Job! Sometimes we don't want to believe we are wrong about choices we made but we learm from them. That want you express must be felt by both or traveling a one way street will surely come to an abrupt end.
