Breaking Free

I'm through with you.

Watched as all these years amounted to nothing

Staying just to feel something

Hurting within but on the outside,

fronting.

Wanting to feel whole again,

be myself

but the funny part is, I'm not even sure who that is anymore

But one thing's for sure, I'm breaking

free from this mental prison

Unlocking the chains

Looking at myself, head shaking

because the key was already with me.

But I must say, you're good at what you do

So please give me pointers,

exactly how did you make me fall in love with you?

Was it all planned? Did you have it written?

Or was it all just up there?

Wait...

were you even assigned to this mission?

Who gave you permission to come turn my world upside down?

To lift me up so high, just to watch me fall down

To make me forget who I was before you

To turn me into your servant

To treat me like a child or as if I were your puppet

But as of today, I'm closing these curtains

I guess you can say it's the final act of your service

Today I'm rewriting my story

And as I turn the pages, i'm thinking I should name this chapter

Evolving.
