Here I Stand, Tall and Proud.

You used to tell me all was well,
You gave me love, you gave me hell,
I loved you so much I gave you my life,
I loved you it hurt bur it kept me alive,

I had my suspicions but was in denial,
I listened to you, I was lost in your smile,
You told me lies, you choked the truth,
You whispered these words so I would stay mute,

You said those girls were all in the past,
You made me believe, that we were to last,
I 'knew' in my heart, your eyes said it all,
I felt it that day, the day of our fall,

I promised not to say it again,
I promised it there I promised it then,
You didn't listen, you pushed me around,
You bled my soul when I hit that ground,

You kicked me, you screamed,
You crushed me and beamed,
I tried to run, I tried to hide,
I tried to keep my sobs inside,

I woke up much later, too late it seems,
I felt my broken body, I felt my heart bleed,
You pierced my soul, you hurt my pride,
You wished and hoped that Id died,

You just left me there in the cold,
You knew then, you had me told,
I didn't care, empty and numb,
I would never forget what you have done,

I picked myself up and brushed myself off,
I placed all my memories of you in a loft,
You walked out that day on a vulnerable girl,
You will see her today without the innocent curl,

You broke her spirit but made her stronger,
You wrecked her life but she'll 'live' longer,
I will always remember my low point,
I now know for sure that I've won the fight.
