And Here I Stand
Slaying from core deep
You made your grand exit
Don't close the door
I have yet to make mine
Allow me to introduce the woman in me
I once thightly held a hand
And although it painfully let me go
I wiped the tears and cried no more
And don't you dare drop a sweat
Don't blink for a second and watch
This is me walking in my red stilettos
This is me killing the only red dress I have
See me walk pass through you
Try and catch if I took a glance
Wish for a second of smile and hi
Wish with all your heart and might
Yet here I stand, bidding you my farewell
I beg of you, listen to my unspoken words of pain
For I stand to give you my most grateful thanks
As I stand to give you my biggest forgiveness
