Breaking Down Walls

Clawing the wall of this cell

I built it up brick by brick within my mind

Purgatory despair and pain

come beating at my door

Sanity has grasped hold of the insanity 

the chasm within my soul slowly grows smaller

Dull eyes burn brighter and life returns to me

No more shall the pain of the past

tear away at me no more shall it bring me to my knees

I shall stand tall... stand stronger

A broken and shaking girl no more

For every time you try to hurt me

I shall break the wall down

You shall see who I am now

I am no longer afraid of who I am

I can be cold and unfeeling to you

I be the lover with a sweet heart

I can be the girl who lies peacefully still

I can be anything I want to be

Without your cruelty I can blossom and be free.

Darkness and light merge into one

The sea of confusion breaks free

For the first time in year I can see clearly

I look into the mirror and see a smile

The smile has found its way to my eyes.

It hurt me to tell you the truth

to tell you what you've done to me

It hurt me to tell you that I can't bring myself to love you

That no matter what I do... it will never be enough

but even as I write these words that you will never see

I can feel the cell breaking apart

falling free... crumbling to dust

So I guess in a way I need to thank you

You're cruelty, the pain you have inflicted on me for so long

has made me become the person I am now.

A person who has a heart to show love

a mind to share true thoughts

and a soul blessed with all the emotions I can give.

I am truly a complete being.
