Your Lying Eyes

Now that it's all over and done, I can finally say that I am strong and that I have learned from the past and my mistakes of you,
I found out that crying, weeping, and begging are all actions of desperation,
Desperation of wanting and thinking that I needed you to survive,

I can't believe that I carried your child, I cant believe that I had faith in your lying eyes,
I just wanted you to love me in the same fashion and form, but anything less would have done,
But the past is the past, and the future is for me to behold,
Loving myself enough to know that I can uphold,
Uphold a life that is pure and grand, A life that is for me to know and understand
Understand that me without you is the one real thing that finally fits right,

Now that I have realized what I know that I know, I can go and live...
