Because of You

Flowing Thoughts

Because of you

She never knew how beautiful she was

She never knew what the world had to offer.

Because of you

She couldn’t bear the touch of another soul.

You told her you loved her

And she believed you.

You left her broken

And she still cared.

And now she sits alone thinking of all the what if’s

The "could have beens

While she never crosses your mind.

She tries to love again

But is too afraid of what it may bring

You broke her down, ripped away the love.

She learned to love herself again

She learned her worth, power, beauty.

Because of you

She is strong again, stronger.

And will never take anything less than what she deserves.

She thinks of you on her worst nights

But she has grown.

She no longer needs you

She no longer needs your artificial love

Your fake comfort.

Now you’re just a passing memory

A fleeting feeling.

Now you realize what you’ve lost.

But it’s too late, too far gone.

Because of you

She learned to love.

And because of you

She is gone.
