I Finally Found Me
I finally found me
Your words once cut me like a knife so deep.
Hours I'd cry and could not sleep.
The guilt,
it did riddle me.
I would feel so bad.
My sorry's ignored.
This made me so sad.
The weeks would go by and never a call.
The blame they would cast,
I would take it all.
All my self worth,
it did take a dive.
My inner soul was no longer alive.
My self respect?
That was a joke.
I was totally gone.
A soul broke.
My build up of pain I earned to release.
My anger consumed me, I became a beast.
Never being right and always wrong,
this made me weak, it made them strong.
The day it come
I could not ignore
I snapped and I screamed.
I could take no more.
I broke myself free from your chains so strong.
You are no longer right.
I am no longer wrong.
What you did was wrong.
What you did was mean.
Because of this is why I did scream.
You no longer own me.
I finally am free.
From here on out, I will always be me.
