You and I

You hit me with your fists You grabbed me by my hair You choked my voice hoarse You left your fingerprints there. You branded me every kind of ***** You sexed me against my will You hurt me so much, I'm numb You took my power to feel. You lied to me constantly You took my heart and used it You took my love for granted You had it and you abused it. You made everything about you You were a thorn in my side You picked the rose to crush it You destroyed her life and she died. Or did she? I refused to let you break my spirit I refused to let you take my soul I refused to let you break me in half I was determined to remain whole. I loved you at your lowest I loved you despite it all I loved you beyond your faults I loved your every flaw. I no longer hurt because of you I feel now, I'm no longer numb I have found a piece of happiness I am a woman who has overcome. I want to thank you for the lesson I have learned a lot from you I now know what I'm capable of I now know what I can push through.
