I Told You So

To my dear brother, 
Seems as you too, have grown cold
To the truth, in which I have always told
You, it is impossible for you to even have a clue
Of what I had gone through
Yet, you feel you have the right to judge me
It is okay, I will say good bye, I must be set free
From all the misery
Sorry for you, that you do not believe in me
Dear brother,
Considering you were not even around
In the army, while I miserably drowned
In his abusive patterns, all alone
Yet I stood strong, I have shown
You all, that I made it all this way on my own, I overcame fear and doubt
I stood a fighter, strong and stout,  because I knew what I was about
Deep down inside, I knew I would survive
Though today I may question how I am still alive
I often felt so alone, I wished to die
But I was too strong, to commit suicide
Giving you all, your bloody wish come true
Nahh, instead I would survive,no sense in pleasing all of you
I  remember when, I  lost my family, friends, and home in the same day
My own blood, abandoned me like a random stray
Animal found, on the side of the street
Dear brother, what you said the other day, served as our defeat
If you were around, you must of been in a ghostly form, I did not see
You, or do I see how you have the right to label me
I was such a liar hey bro, well the liar is not me, to bad you stand blind
Enough to believe the liars,.my true family is defined
My dear brother, by those who stick by my side
Not by those who could not even provide
Something to hold on to, when I was all alone, my family
Are those, who have never doubted me, or fail to see
That I am not a liar, my chosen family are those who offered support
Instead of throwing dirt
Into the path, I had chosen, tell me brother how a child could abandon
Her parents, instead of her parents abandoning her, that does not happen
Here on planet earth,until you  see my worth, you must do like the rest
Fade away because I deserve the very best
So if you can not leave the past where it belongs, which is behind
I am sorry dear brother of mine, it is time for me to find
Peace with out you in my life, I have already made it through
Eleven years, with out seeing you so I should  be able to do, another ten without you
Good bye brother of mine, when the truth is revealed 
After all the years I left it concealed, when it is spoken my heart will be healed
That is the day, I will glow
While saying "I told you so"
