VictoryA Poem by ShawnaFrom the heart, personal experience.You took away the innocence I had inside
Like it was yours to take away and keep forever
You never asked me how I felt or why I cried
You just took for granted that I would get better
All the years and all the hurt and I still see your face
Your haunting voice and your cold dark eyes
My nightmares still take me back to that place
It's lonely and sad this place that I go
It's where once I knew who I was
I still had my soul
What was it you saw inside of me that you had to take
Was it my pure heart, my naivety
Or was it my heart you meant to break?
I just want to tell you wherever you are today
You took what you thought I would never get back
But I have something more to say
I was stronger than you thought and I fought my way back
I crushed that demon, I rose above my fears
And I made a beam of light out of all the black
You no longer haunt me when I close my eyes at night
I no longer see you and your evil
Though I know you would love to stand by my side
To remind me of what control you had on me
But may I remind you
Everything isn't always as it seems
Goodbye now you sorry excuse for a beating heart
Your strong hands are weak now
And I'm not done but you know it's a good start
I smell your fear, your relentless worry
You thought you had me
Now all you can say is "I'm sorry"
Your apologies have no meaning to me
I just want you gone
Put yourself out of misery
