All around me I could see was happiness Where I felt I needed to be. White picket fences and a happy family, It seemed like a dream. First love, naïve I became, For it was never reality. Crushed heart, broken soul, Bruises and tears as I laid on the floor. Blind to my present stuck on the past, I refused to believe that true love never lasts All emotions gone, just a walking corpse. Deceit, lies, and drugs, can you hurt me more? A child I gave you a gift from my womb A solution to a broken home. An angel god sent me to fill my life with joy. She helped me stop you in time, For it was her life you would eventually destroy. Awaken I was reborn and brought back to life. I don’t hate you, I see the pain, a lifeless soul, My heart goes out to you I hope you heal, My wounds are closed and now I smile. As I look into that dark room I thank god for love, Because now I am stronger than ever and I can sit here and say, The dream was just that and it was you to blame. I summed up the strength and chose to walk away Now you’re alone in this cruel disgusting game. Now sit there and take it like the man you say you are, And I will gladly sit here and laugh as you swallow your pride.
