Again

You obliterated me. Ripped out of my soul everything that I held dear
And dulled my shine with your heartless words of anger and hatred.
I did not deserve this. Did not deserve your daggers
But you, my darling sniper, are a master shot...
Your words hit their mark and instead of building me up,
Seeing my insecurities and patching them up you destroyed me.
Whatever was worth of me, whatever I protected, you saw.
You saw, you came, and you ripped it all out of me
Without a second thought of the consequences.
You used pieces of me to patch up your wounds
And when your own bleeding stopped you turned and you walked...
Not in my shoes, not in your own, but in designer shoes
That make everything feel as if it's okay again.
You destroyed me. Left me broken and bleeding
After you promised you would never turn your back on my heart.
So it took me some time. Took me a moment to pick up the pieces,
To run to the store and get all the adhesives
And learn, slowly but surely, to patch myself up by myself... all alone.
I walked fearful and scared through the streets, all alone...
At first looking for you, looking for someone, looking for home
But I found none of it. Still all by myself...
Until I stumbled on someone else.
I found myself standing on the street where you should have been,
Patched up, with some cracks but enough of a masterpiece...
And as I saw myself, others saw me...
One, two, three, four, five, fifteen...
They slowly began to give me some shine
And now... I'm whole and out of your harm.
