Poem -

I still stand with my head held high

I still stand with my head held high

I can't believe how blind I was 
How much I didn't see
I gave you all the love I had
You used it to destroy me

I trusted you with my secrets
I believed each and every lie
You told me that you loved me
But if I'd have stayed I wouldn't have survived 

It's not me that's lost something amazing
I now see the truth behind your lies
You might have used who I was against me
But now I hold me head up with pride 

You're the one sat at night lonely
Knowing you once had it all
But I have the truth to keep me warm
The fact you still hide it says it all

You never really loved me
And you didn't deserve my love so true
So keep lying about who you are to the world
I'll sit tight til karma gets to you

You see I've picked myself up and I'm happy
I built back up you destroyed 
And I won't stop believing in true love
Afterall true love conquers all

I use to give myself away to the other.....but learned to not give my power away anymore.   Today I love myself enough to protect myself from letting others crush my heart.  No more empty wells for me,  no more people who stomp on the heart.  Good riddance.

The price of love is pain....and the pain helps me learn to protect my heart better.
