You turned your back on me today
didn't even have the guts to say,
Cast out like a homeless person
Only teaching me one more lesson.
I was slowly getting my life back
Seeing me fight barriers and tears,
Finding music as my therapuatic track
Back and forth I went for a few years.
Building me up making me strong
Then with one swipe I was gone,
Not caring if it was right or wrong
As least I knew for a while I shone.
You took your patronising aid
Threw it back in my joyful face,
All the love and care you displayed
Then lit the fire while in bed I layed.
I may glow brighter as you fall
When your gone I will still be here,
setting a spark with one swift call
But I will remember have no fear.
