You came here Shattered my mind Broke up my barrier And forcefully tore my walls down Saying how sorry you were Kissing my face over and over While I froze in shock You weren’t supposed to be here I told you not to come That I wanted to think To build a plan You just showed up No warning Like I was just going to give in You acted like I was the problem Saying I don’t know what you think about And you don’t know what I think about Said you’ve been thinking about the good times And how we needed to think about the kids In my head I was shouting “I am” That’s why I needed to think You acting like I don’t care about them When they’re all I’m thinking about How I’ve put them through all this How hurt they are that you’re gone They ask about you too And every time I feel like breaking down Until I remember Everything you’ve done and that I can’t break, because of them I’m trying to build a new life Breaking generational cycles

Fight or Flight
You came here Shattered my mind Broke up my barrier And forcefully tore my walls down Saying how sorry you were Kissing my face over and over While I froze in shock You weren’t supposed to be here I told you not to come That I wanted to think To build a plan You just showed up No warning Like I was just going to give in You acted like I was the problem Saying I don’t know what you think about And you don’t know what I think about Said you’ve been thinking about the good times And how we needed to think about the kids In my head I was shouting “I am” That’s why I needed to think You acting like I don’t care about them When they’re all I’m thinking about How I’ve put them through all this How hurt they are that you’re gone They ask about you too And every time I feel like breaking down Until I remember Everything you’ve done and that I can’t break, because of them I’m trying to build a new life Breaking generational cycles
