You were my rock,
My back stood against you when I was weak..
My arms seek to grab you when I sleep..
You were my smile,
Laughs and fun times never seemed to end..
Parties and late night vibes until daybreak bends..
You were my heart,
Oh how seeing your face brightens my day..
Or how your touch makes my panties feel a certain way..
But then something happened,
The monster in you became real.
I stood my ground though..
Because this love, I needed to feel.
You became my tears,
Late night prayers..
On knees I knead.
You became my darkness,
Unable to face the truth..
I harbored all the things you do
You became my pain,
Bloody faces and heart aches
Words that pierced my soul
Damn, how much can I take?
Deep down I knew I had to leave
Pain was all I knew
Lies you told, could never be true
Apologies, flowers, and candy..
Lifetime on bended knee begging and pleading
Could never lead me back to you
I saw the light
I prayed for better
That's when God sent down His angel to me
She had a letter:
"Break your chains of oppression. Daughter of Eve,
you were crowned the day you were born. Rise up and shine Queen.. no more shall you mourn."
Then it happened..
God became my rock,
He showed me all I had to be thankful for
Showed me how to walk out that door..
God became my smile,
With an anointed hand He grazed my cheek
I can't remember when I ever felt so free..
And,
God became my heart,
My faith grew stronger
It was almost impossible to stay unhappy
Any longer..
