Personal Vengeance

I stand here a girl with blue eyes in pain

Muscles flexing and twitching

Body not moving as I reach a decision

Deep inside me there can only be one way to go

I can either lie down and let this drag me down and die

Or I can be a fighter with fire in their eyes

The voice inside my head tells me to let down the walls

I can be safe by learning to accept who I am

The mask around my eyes begins to splinter and decay

I have no idea who I am any more

Am I the girl who can smile and light a room up still

Or the one who can break a heart with a single tear drop

Teeth begin to grind against one another

Fingers crack as I flex my arms and feel strength flow through them

I can do this - with or without you

I can remember how to fight the shadows and darkness

The rain will fall on the sunniest of days to hide my tears

I am tired of being the victim

It's time to reclaim my inner power and beauty

It's time to become....

Me.
