Stacy Day Poet I do not know?

On My Own

I’m stuck in this 
Painful memory
Of what I thought 
Should be

It never should have 
Come to this
For Christ sake
We’re your kids

I know now 
Nothing I say and nothing I do 
Nothing will change
The way I feel for you

There’s no more excuses 
And no more lies 
All that’s left is the truth
That you can’t deny

You hid from the truth
For so long
It must kill you 
To admit you were wrong

But I expect nothing
And won’t be surprised
If you choose to turn,
Run and hide

It’s what you do best
Though lives are at stake
But that’s just you 
All you do is take

But I refuse
To take anymore
Its been a lot
More than I can endure

It’s over now
And it’s all your fault 
I’d hate to see you
Don’t bother to call

Just let me be
I’m fine all alone
And I’ll make it further 
Then you did all on my own
