Still healing

🎵 “Still Healing”

Genre: Acoustic soul / soft country

Loving him was fire from the start,

2018 lit a spark inside my heart.

Eyes met and the world stood still,

Like time was waiting for love to feel real.

By next May, we had a girl with his smile,

A piece of us that made it all worthwhile.

But while she grew, the cracks did too—

And love got quieter like it always knew…

I’m still healing from the storms inside,

From a past I buried but never survived.

And though I gave him all of me,

I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be.

The years passed, and families grew cold,

His hands felt farther, not like before.

I still love, but I can’t deny…

Some days I don’t feel alive.

I tried to stay the girl he met,

But life don’t let you forget regret.

Smiles faded, fights grew long,

And I kept quiet just to stay strong.

Family dinners turned into space,

No welcome left in that empty place.

They loved him, but I felt erased—

Like a ghost in his warm embrace.

I’m still healing from the parts I lost,

From choosing love, no matter the cost.

I’ve carried more than he can see,

Still wearing pain too quietly.

And though our daughter knows my name,

I pray she never feels this kind of pain.

I’m loving soft, I’m loving small…

But I don’t feel much at all.

I don’t know what I’m supposed to feel,

When love feels distant and nothing’s real.

I held on tight, but time pulled free—

Now I’m just trying to hold on to me.

I’m still healing, don’t ask me why

I can’t smile without a cry.

I loved him hard, I loved him deep,

But some wounds don’t let you sleep.

Years went on, but I got left behind—

In a love that slowly redefined.

I still hope, but I won’t lie…

I’m still healing

More than goodbye.
