Spread My Wings and Fly

Breathing, looking, feeling and walking Deciding, choosing, living and talking Just like a developing child; an adolescent learning Just like an endless beginning a genuine yearning Independent, supported or alone Beg, borrow, or maybe one day I'll even own There is definitely a light and it is calling me Close my eyes spread my wings and I will fly free No more shame, pretend, cheap smiles and lies No more ifs, buts, maybes or whys? Who are you? What do you want? How do you sleep? I know now I am not your possession to abuse and keep You were right, it's dramatic, and all for show But it was you in the lead role, so desperate to grow Like a parasite you tried to consume and destroy my life Like a human being I tried to be your daughter,and friend Go back to where you came from; it is what you do best Go back to being nothing,; an annoying little pest And when you get there be sure look up high Can you see me beaming brightly, lighting up the sky Each night I am reminded that you are evil, selfish and vile Each night I am reminded how lucky I am, blessed and smile You should see us now you've gone; happy, confident and born again All our own work, they erased you and survived any pain It was much easier than I thought; you can't miss what was never there But unlike you, I did feel love, I wanted to grow, experience and share What a waste, a pointless thought and an unwanted gift All you saw was credibility, an excuse and blame to shift It is getting closer, that beautiful light calling me Close my eyes spread my wings and I am flying free It's over, just give up and please let us be Never again imprisoned, now and forever I'm holding the key Your self-pity and fairy tales fall on deaf ears I geuss ive just filtered you out after all these years Your stories and lies create no sympathetic tears One by one everyone is hearing the truth T.R.U.T.H. comes with REAL evidence and proof I swear this is the final night you will give me no sleep There's no master plan or cunning revenge for me to reap You are a lonely now,an idiot, bully,and gambling fool You've lost again; I've got it all Do you feel small? Pathetic and cruel Down, down you fall At last I am standing tall ...We've got it all

Is this real or fictional? Whatever the case, the poet is in charge of her pen and writes so outstandingly well. Kudos! #7.
