I'm Happy Being Me

Your pride will kill you
Be humble
if not you'll die alone too
You pushed away someone who without questing would go to war for you
Our whole relationship wasted
Spent inside your head
You're imagination played you
Painting a picture of the drug addict me
Making it where you thought you didn't have to respect me
The silent treatment controlled me
Picking apart my personality
Your imagination convinced me
I believed you were better than me
Turns out you fight the same demons as me
Check to check
Now I know why you went days without speaking to me
Your tolerance continues to increase
Pain killers are expensive
But without them it's hard to sleep, Wake up, Eat, Work, Laugh, Or just be
My smile is a reminder you're not better than me
This isn't some hate speech
Or a fancy way to blame you
Because I'll rip the paper up when I'm through
I'm not perfect by no means
I don't try to forget the past me
I'm ashamed because I didn't love me
I couldn't understand why you didn't want me
One day your secret will be hard for you to keep
An when that day comes without judgement you will have me
I realized your just unhappy
It has nothing to do with me
For our son's sake I hope you find your Happy
An when you do you'll understand I didn't abandon you
I saved me
I found my missing piece
An set myself free
An just for today
I'm able to be me
I'm fucking amazing
You missed out on getting to know me
I am a GREAT MOTHER
AN YOUR APPROVAL I NO LONGER SEEK
