I Smile


I listened 

because I didn't want to annoy you

I begged

because I didn't want to lose you

I cried

because I wasn't good enough for you

 

I thought you cared

but it was me that was scared

scare that I couldn't live without you

so I let you dictate my life

Your words stabbed my heart like a knife

and little did I know your heart was made of ice

 

you left me with another guy

yet I still gave you another try

once again I was damnify

thought you could change 

but you were nothing but the same

i only left myself to blame

And you left me as if I were some type of game

 

Eventually I grew and matured 

My heart was ready and restored

i learned what love was not

I wasn't going to care for you and rot

i was able to move on

 

Love isnt controlling

Love doesn't hurt

Love is suppose to heal..

 

I Rejoice

because I found my happiness 

I celebrated 

because I found myself again

I Smile

because i loved myself again
