What You Don'T Do

You don't lie,
You don't fool around,
But you do fall down,
You are human,
You can't hold me down,
You don't mean anything to me,
Even if you made me drown,
You don't own me,
You don't have power,
I have sufferred enough,
You are no longer the controller,
The marks that remain,
The scars left behind,
The most important thing,
You will not do,
Is be allowed to love me anymore.....
