WHO I'VE BECOME

WHO I'VE BECOME

What is the good, of being so strong
If it's left me detached and lonely
What's the purpose of having survived
If I can`t change, how it's left me
I try to be strong, stay positive
And accept things, as they must be
But I can't live, I can't breathe
With the loneliness of me
I can't accept who I've become
As strong as she may be
She's only a painful reminder
Of the loss and brokenness of me
She learned to detach, to disappear
She learned to fade out of sight
Now I live with her insecurities
And relive the fear of that night
It's not the past, I deal with now
It's the pain of how it's left me
I can't love with a broken trust
Or be the me, I wanted to be
