There was a time when you loved me,
There was a time when you said I was the one.
There was a time when you were caring,
There was a time when we were happy.
There was a time when you kissed me,
There was a time when you held me.
There was a time when you promised to protect me,
There was a time when we were one.
There came a time when you changed,
There came a time when you turned ugly.
There came a time when you hurt me,
There came a time when you abused me.
There came a time when your love turned into shackles,
There came a time when your words turned into blows.
There came a time when your kisses turned into scars,
There came a time when we were so close, yet worlds apart.
That was the time when I befriended anxiety,
That was the time when I found panic.
That was the time when I fell down a spiral,
That was the time when I lost myself.
That was the time when I decided it was enough,
That was the time when I fought back.
That was the time when I left,
That was the time when I walked away.
There will come a time when I find the one for me,
There will come a time when he loves me.
There will come a time when he cherishes me,
There will come a time when he treats me right.
There will come a time when he reverses the damage you caused,
There will come a time when he helps me find myself,
There will come a time when he makes me feel precious,
There will come a time when he makes me live, not survive.
