 A New Woman


Aged 19

Am holding back my needs for personal growth
You won't allow me to grow, travel or be me
You made promises you haven't kept
You lied to me I kept your secrets
I'm going to let you go but I know
I may have to expose you Someday
I need freedom to be me
You hate who I am
Your pride gets in the way
Your ego inflates your head
I come back to you
Where did the ugly expression kiss and make up come from exactly?
We kiss, we feel excitement and then we're back to fighting
We don't get along you love making me worked up
You laugh at my tears then its a toxic cycle I repeat again
I just want to be appreciated
I'm beautiful I'm Phat and you don't see my beauty
You lie and cheat and im left to pick up the pieces
I let you stay with me and I got nothing but a broken heart
I just asked one thing
I was a breadwinner so was my mama
All I asked was that you appreciate me
You care and love me back
Give back what you can and so far
All you gave me were bruises on my heart
Blisters on my feet and a rash on my soul
Time to end this fake dart
You hit me right through my heart
It's toxic is poisonous
You show everyone how amazing and reliable but with me I'm just a damn doggy toy
Not anymore
I'm busting out this joint
I still got my mother
No love is stronger
Yes I know I'm gonna be hated so bad
Nobody will probably wanna go next to me
After you bust right through my wall
Why you had to break me
It was written to hurt me
To make me grow stronger
Being with you caused me trauma and stress
I had to forgive myself
So I let you go
Or I'll keep hanging on and on
I'm waiting for surgery to stop my epilepsy
I can only blame myself for not leaving you fast enough
For picking up toxic habits
When I leave I'm not coming back
I'll make a sexy ass woman out of me
It ain't to make you regret it or love me back
It's so I love me more than anybody else will
