Embers

I see why you think this is acceptable
I understand why you failed at making me miserable
I know now what you play
I see through your ********
I can feel my way 
through this maze
Of Delusional Denials
Taking hold of what you thought was real
Bringing me into  my destiny
Taking me back from what was left to feel

Mind over you 
You were a waste
Wasting my energy
Taking up space
Now Its all clear
Even though its all black
Nothing will change it
Thats the matter of fact


Mindlessly meandering
Barking  to the wind

You think you were right
Well we both know you were wrong
I know exactly what you are made of
******** and a false sense of getting along.

I clear my head
from the thoughts you provoked
I stand my ground
Over the charred embers smoke
I know I will be better
Than you ever knew
From the person you mistook me for
TO the spirit I will grow
YOu always had to have it your way
Even now to this day
You say you want it to be different,
Than why don't you try and change today?
