Run
Like a shark surrounds it's prey,
You skirt around me,
Never hitting head on.
Backing into a corner,
Scaring me into hiding.

Was the pain you caused not enough?
Are not my emotional scars enough?
Or is it because I fought back that you need something more permanent?

Eliminating my army,
Eliminating my support,
One by one.
Until I am alone...

I will not give up,
I will not back down.
I will fight,
I will win.
No more of my blood will be shed for you,
No more of my tears will you get.
The fear has turned to anger,
I'm warning you now, RUN.
