How Do I?

How do I move on from a love I once had
How do I leave the refreshed feelings at the door?
How do I forget all the memories that we made
How do I go forward knowing I was wrong
How do I find peace with myself now?
How do I look at you in the face with pain?
How do I deal with you and a new man?
How do I recover the past and create a future
How do I talk to you and not want to kiss you
How do I express my sincere, heartfelt apologies?
How do I put one foot ahead of the other now
How do I love you now more than ever before?
How do I let myself into someone else’s heart?
How do I trust someone again completely like you?
How do I just be friends with you when my heart aches?
How do I know how long to wait until I hear you say no?
How do I appreciate what I have with you now?
How do I sit in bed and not cry for you every night
How do I just erase you from my heart and mind?
How do I hide my emotions inside when I want you so bad?
How do I keep my eyes from not tearing up when I see you?
How do I forgive myself for walking away without help?
How do I fight this overwhelming love that has surfaced?
How do I promise you that loving me now is different?
How do I tell you now that this is our last goodbye?
How do I send this to you now and not melt inside
How do I thank you for everything you have done?

How do I?
