Me No Longer
August 30, 2011
So you say I'm nothing more
than what I've always been?
The times you knocked me down,
I've never gotten back up again?
And each time I brought myself back
I haven't gotten any stronger?
Then what you think of me,
that is me no longer.
I will not walk away.
I will not get hurt today.
You will feel how I have felt,
forever and always.
I have a mind
and I'll speak it.
You are no threat to me,
believe it.
I am releasing the walls
that have held me in.
You want me back?
Think again.
You've misjudged me all along.
I will only get stronger.
And what you think of me,
that is me no longer.

Sometimes the thoughts in my head get bored and go for a stroll out through my mouth. This is rarely a good thing.
