Goodbye

You cursed me!
Mocked me!
Belittled and teased me!
Because of you I never believed I could be;
Forever your puppet was my destiny

But there I was,
Still confiding in you
Believing in you to see me through

I couldn't see past the dark clouds of deceit
Those painful words that made me feel weak

The false hopes you placed before my eyes
It's a shame I couldn't see past your lies
But because I wasn't that wise
I was the sole cause of my own demise

You hurt me with hitting
You hurt me with spitting
You hurt me with quitting
When you quit...on us...

But I begged you to return,
Pleaded and cried
Almost died
Wanting us to survive
But then you realized

Without me, who would you torture?
Upon who inflict pain?
None other than me, my soul, my name.

But right then was when your luck ran out!
For in that brief moment without you I figured it out
Without me, you had no one to abuse,
But without you, I had nothing to lose!

No more hurt
And no more pain
I could live my life in sunshine
Exist without your rain

I'm no longer your puppet
You won't pull another string
I've removed myself
From your worthless being

I've spread my wings
And prepared to fly
So long, farewell,
I bid you adieu,
Goodbye!
