Jarid Miller Poet I do not know?

I Won'T Cry For You No More

I won't shed anymore tears. I had it with your lies. 
I'm through being your stepping-stone. This is my 
goodbye. 

The abuse I took all those years describes the 
person that you are. I let you push me to a 
certain level, but now you've gone too far. 

Pack up your things and go. There is no more me and 
you. I said it one time before, do I need to repeat 
that we're through? 

Go find somebody else to mess over. Let them find 
out what a person you are. You're lower than dirt... 
what a fall! You use to be my star. 

You want me to cry a river, but I won't give you 
the satisfaction. You thought I'd never leave you. 
You thought I was all talk, no action. 

"You'll never find nobody better than me," you 
laughed and you taunt. There is more fish in the 
sea and I'll catch anyone I want. 

I do not hate you. I'm a better person than that. 
If it wasn't for you, then I wouldn't be where 
I'm at. 

So thank you for making me wiser. I will not get 
depress. I will not stay angry at you nor love you 
any less. 

Because of you I'm stronger. I can stand the test 
of time. I am taking back my life. I am taking 
back what's mine. 

My self-esteem you cannot have. My pride you will 
not take. What you see is a changed man...I've 
been redeemed this day. 

Once you were my lover. You were all I was asking 
for. Now you're a thing of the past and I won't 
cry for you no more.
