Stronger

I was weak for so long
I fell hard for your love
You made me feel I could belong.
You made me feel like a dove.

But when I fell you walked away
I thought you would always stay.
You promised me you cared
But when I needed you, you weren't there.
So I screamed and I yelled
As I fell to my knees
And I prayed and I begged
For you to rescue me.
When I heard you moved on
And married someone new.
It broke what was left
Of my heart in two.
But I want to say thank you
It was just what I needed.
I feel like the garden of my soul
Is being weeded.
I realised I was much stronger alone.
Your love was my weakness
You brought a shiver to my bone
But my darkened heart
Was the strength I would need
I have nothing to lose
Now I have been freed.
