Walked, Trampled, and Stomped On
I let people walk over me like the rug i thought i was,
flat and faced down on the cold floor,
where no one can see,
the pain and hurt brewing underneath.
I let people trample my soul like the dirt on the ground,
dry, cracked without a life source to live,
desperately trying to find,
that something to help it live.
I let people stomp on my dreams like they do concrete,
hard and fast in a blink of time,
without remorde for the feelings,
nor sympathy for my hope.
Oh, why do i let people walk, trample and stomp on me,
is it because i haven't found the voice i need to speak for myself,
or is it because i am too scared to just be me,
maybe it is because i can't find the fight inside to fight to walk, trample, and stomp on them.
