The Pain

i didnt believe that it would work
i had rushed into it and didnt want to get hurt
i let you gor someone different thinking things would be easier
not realizing my life was taking a dive.
i lived having to hid my feelings accused of cheating and lying
felt stabbed many times with a knife
mentally abused not yet physical but afraid of what time may bring.
i didnt know what to do i didnt know anything
i stayed and let him play with my heart
slowly just ripping it more and more apart
Afraid of what would happen if i let go
afraid of the pain that i would cause
afraid of the sorrow he would flow
so i took the pain,slander, and all
until i couldnt take anymore i had to fall
one night things went terribly wrong
i felt my life was in danger
i had waited to long
i took a chance knowing what i had to do
for the safety of my heart and soul
i had to say goodbye to you
once i did i finally realized
what i left was gone
and what was gone was what i wanted all along.
