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.
