I wanted to play the victim for a while longer.
I wanted to blame someone 'for the way I am'
I didn't want to take responsibility of my emotions, so I tossed them around.I wanted to be liberated though,
I wanted my voice back and I wanted that power,
But to get that I had to be willing to let sleeping dogs sleep,
I had to forgive even though the apology never came.
To keep me sane, to guard my heart I had to stop playing victim and take ownership of my emotions
This is me letting you know that I'm walking away.
I am leaving that broken girl on the floor, and rise up stronger than I was.
I realized your apology was never going to come, so its time I make progress in my life.
I will keep my eyes open and looking forward, I will guard my heart with all I have.
I am focusing on getting better by leaving my bitterness behind.
The past has no new news for me so there is no point for me to stay there.
Im walking away, towards a future I know nothing of
With my clean heart and less baggage I walk towards a tommorow I hope will be brighter.
