Today, I Feel Strong
Today, I feel heartbroken
Because my forever love didn't last.
What was suppose to be future
Has just become my past.
Today, I feel lonely
Because I left my companion,
The one for whom my love
Was deeper than the grand canyon.
Today, I feel depression
Because no one can relate.
I'm all alone in this world.
It's just me...give or take.
Today, I feel self-concious
Because I don't know what I did wrong.
I can't understand why our melodies
Were those of different songs.
Today, I feel ignorant
Because of my stupid choice.
Because I knew his lies.
I could hear them in his voice.
Today, I feel inadequate
Because I chose to stay.
Because I wasn't enough for myself.
Because I wasted my days.
Today, I feel dumb.
Because the truth was in my face.
Because I gave him everything.
Because I let him lie dead in my face.
But, the negative emotions
Are somehow overcome.
Because even though I feel bad,
Today, I feel strong.
Today, I feel strong.
Because I had the guts to leave.
I knew when enough was enough
And I became enough for me.
Today, I feel strong
Because I uncovered the truth
Because I gave him up
Because he is no longer under my roof.
Today, I feel strong
Because he will forever respect me
Because I stopped taking his crap
Because I made it how it has to be
Today, I feel strong
Because I have enough love for myself
Because I am my own truth
Because I know my own worth
Today, I feel strong
Because he can hurt me no longer
I had the strength to leave
And now that I'm gone
I'll become stronger.
