STRENGTH

For all the trust and faith you abused,

Do you think I would still be amused?

You are what you are - a classic player,

They fell for your charms, you're a stealthy slayer.

A smile, a sentence and they gave you their all,

I did too once, I can clearly recall,

And then you betrayed me and that was it,

Trust, faith, love, they're all in the pit.

Now go to that girl you wanted to exchange me for,

Crawl to her now, your psycho little whore,

Is this the kind of girl you like and adore?

Is this the kind of life you deserve anymore?

Funny how fast she exchanged you for her other "friends",

Funny how much she values you, I just can't comprehend,

And then here you are, trying to act cute,

But deep down inside, you're nothing but a cruel brute.

You crush the feelings of the person who loved you dearly,

And within that period of time, I saw everything clearly,

Were you just using me? Have you ever been sincere?

What you did hurt me deep, you pierced me with a spear.

But there was a vow I made I know I must keep,

I worry for your well-being, to see you through, a future so steep,

So I held on to prove you wrong - I care for you; so deep,

Till one day maybe when we're both strong, I will be gone in asleep.

I want you to know how deeply you've hurt me,

But to my being you can always refer, that I guarantee,

For your success is part of mine too, I care for you too much,

I will make myself strong again, no longer fragile to your touch.

I have learned my lesson, what I feared so long was true,

"You can't trust men, no matter what they swore to you",

But you will always be in my prayers, in every drop of tear,

I wish you all the best, a wish so sincere,

If one day you find the loyalty and honesty in you,

Then someday maybe we might be able to start anew,

Love is a complicating emotion that is hard to construe,

If one day it's meant to be, it is a hope long overdue,

If only you had appreciated me, appreciated what I can offer,

You would find a strength and security that none can confer,

If only everything was different, if only everything was great,

In confidence I would've proclaimed, forever you're my soul-mate.
