The Reason Why
I sit here all alone
Wondering why my mind races
All I see are images from the past
The things you did to me are not ok
You hurt me beyond repair
There is no love only pain
I see myself breaking
The cracks become canyons
My body shakes with fear
Once the images pass I am left a mess
I can no longer move
I am numb
Then the anger blissfully comes
Revenge takes the place of pain
Victim I am no longer
Stop wondering why I shy from love
Why I cannot trust
How I can push you away
I am a worrior
Strong and fierce
I will rely on no one
Not again
I will stand alone
And face my demons
