My Destiny
My heart is filled with acrimony
The culmination came with his testimony
He said that he no longer needed me
And that he was now setting me free
I thought this was my destiny, my plan
All centered around this place, this man
I gathered my things and I left behind
The world I thought of as mine
The brilliant noonday sun did not melt
The freeze that my heart so deeply felt
Despair was taking over my feelings
From this blow, my head was reeling
The combination made me begin to sob
What would I do without that job?
