Her heart has survived through the storm
She held tight to its fragile form
The damage she tries to repair
Scrubbing away all the despair
All the anger and all the hate
She washes away to create
A brand new story for her soul
A story where she’ll be made whole
Never again will she look back
At the time the skies were black
I am no longer afraid of you
Who do you think you are talking to
I’m not the same one you knew before
I have grown to become so much more
The anger within I’ll no longer hold
I will take you down until you are cold
In these flames I have been reborn
No longer bowing to your scorn
The power is now held by me
Time to open your eyes and see
Look now upon what you have made
In the bed you make you’ll be laid
Anger seething below the surface
Defiance in her eyes is endless
For all the pain that broke her soul
She has mended and is now whole
She has mended stronger than before
A wall of stone now protects her core
Hatred now flows through these veins
For all the hurt and the pains
Caused by those who do not care
They shatter lives, cause despair
But no more will she take
From those who cause such ache
She wakes in a haze, the betrayal still burning hot
Memories seared in her mind, her stomach in a knot
Pain is running through her from head to toe
Agony in her heart, moving so slow
Looking in the mirror, and another’s face peers back
This can’t be her own – the swelling, bruises so black
Apologies fall from his lips, he loves her so
Wincing from his touch, she can remember each blow
His love he delivered with such a force and rage
Apologies ring empty, they do not assuage
This boundary crossed she can never forgive
With this betrayal so deep she can’t live
What was done that night can never be undone
She walks away and her tears fall one by one
