i gave you my everything
and i thought you took it all away
but i realized that i am my everything
i am my savior
my angel
my guiding light
i am the one that holds me at night

i gave you my heart
and i thought you shattered it completely
but then i realized though broken it still beat
pumping blood through my veins
my life
my reason to hold onto all of me
i love

i gave you my strength
and i thought you only took it for weakness
but then i realized that my weaknesses make me stronger
my faults
make me human
make me feel
unique like a wrist bone or a finger print
and beautiful in its creation
i breathe

i gave you every breath i exhaled
and you never took it in
you never felt the essence i breathed into you
but now i breathe for me
i inhale the sunshine into my own lungs
ive won.

i gave you the credit i deserved
i showed you the humility the compassion the forgiveness i yearned for
but now im giving it to me.

i am my everything
