Something I wrote in my spare time at work. Not finished yet, starting out as a poem, turning it into a song.. let me know what you think. it has so significant meaning, so don't jump to conclusions.

| How It All Started 4 pages worth, wrapped up into one poem |
I said I would not do this
Not let this happen again
Stupid me, I let you win
A victory for you,
yet the victim is me
Slowly getting back to the me
I truly deserve to see
No longer allowing you
To have control over me
I'm looking in the mirror
Not sure of who I see
Not me
Not even a reflection
Of what I used to be
It's time to be set free
I've got the strength here
within me
You're no longer needed
I found it in me
I used to be the one
To take a hit and run
Now I've got the strength
To make that full home run
To take it all
To always win
Taking away my sin
It seems now,
I can win
Having you around
Is simply holding me down
Now it is you
Who is looked at like the clown
It's time for me to run
Run far far away
So one day you can stand back
To see the bigger picture
To see inside of me
To finally see
What I dreamed
for you and me
What we truly could be
Partly fiction
So filled with friction
But by far
My strongest addiction
Overcame many obstacles
Many tests of fear and doubt
But to hear you speak those words
My whole world was torn apart
Now you're lost
Without a trace
Thanks to your own misplace
I finally won first place
Friends and family
Always handy
Not to mention
They help keep my sanity
Before I reach out my hand
They always understand
Without them it's true
I couldn't walk or stand
Always pushed them away
Part of keeping my emotions astray
Can't believe it's me
Now I begin to betray
However, I have no fear
In my friends
It's all so clear
No need for them to see my fear
And at the end of the day
They are still here
