Redemption


Funny how the ones that claim to love you,hurt you. It's "tough love" they say If you don't fall down you won't get back up. If you push me down how can that possibly be the same Bloodied knees and broken fingers I stood on my own two feet I fell once again A man stood over me and handed me a pen I couldn't grip it, so it laid there and collected dust. My fingers healed and I became enraged I wanted them all to suffer and cry out I remembered the pen after I had forgotten the pain. I picked it up,clicked it. I grabbed a fresh sheet of paper Let's begin.
