I'm Okay

by Jenni Marie   Sep 6, 2007


Trusted you absolutely, yet you tore me straight apart
Your actions resulted, in breaking an eleven year olds heart
Didn't even do all your time, never showed any regret
Wasted so many tears, yet you could easily forget

Caused so much trouble, didn't know where to turn
Pain was crippling, felt like it would consume and burn
Never dreamed you'd do what you did, I looked up to you
Violated me in the foulest way, no idea what you put me through

Clearly didn't know, about the pain that you dealt
Took me so many years, to work through misery I felt
Finally began to deal, you weren't always on my mind
But trouble was just beginning, I'd found someone else unkind

Thought we were friends, yet you destroyed me like no other
How could I have known, two people so like one another?
Weeks passed by slowly, everything in a total blur,
Constantly wondering why, you both pretended to care

Ripped me apart, right down to the soul
Of my life, I was no longer in control
Pain so enormous, didn't think I'd recover
Feeling so lost, thought in pain I'd smother

Until one day it hit me, had to start fighting back
Couldn't let you win, had to get my life back on track
Despite all you did to me, the countless sins
Pleases me to say, I'm okay, you're not going to win
