You Took Advantage Because You Could

There’s no tears left to cry,

All you did was cheat and lie,

Left me broken at the door,

My heart left ripped and tour,

You thought you broke me,

And i just couldn’t see,

How badly you beat me,

and how you abused my body,

Although time helps and heals,

I now no how it feels, to truly suffer,

At the hands of my lover,

The burden i carry to fear another,

Now I have freed myself from you,

It’s easy to see what was truly true,

I was never good enough, you made do,

I wish that i knew, or even had a clue,

All i did was love you, I’m such a fool,

You were a monster, who was so cruel,

You punished me for wanting you,

You said our love was meant to be true,

You left me shattered on the floor,

Discarded, just like a cheap whore,

Unable to face this world anymore,

Unable to find anything to live for,

Your torture was addictive,

But It was the attention i needed,

So i tried and tried to get my fix of it,

Now i see you were such a hypocrite,

My heart beated with belief in you,

I deeply desired this love so true,

The pain deep inside is still raw,

It lingers on in my every pour,

But you cannot win this war,

Ive ended it and slammed that door,

You will not scare me as you did before,

You will end up alone forever more,

You taught me so much its true,

I’m a better person because of you,

So for that i must say thank you,

Im confident you’ll get karmas due,

You stole my identity, who i was, its true,

I became a shell of the girl i once knew,

I have survived your torturous games,

And endured all your inflicted pains

I survived i am not your victim,

Cursed by your vindictive criticism,

This fight is far from being done,

However my new life has just begun.
