In your lies
I find truth
In your weakness
I find strength
and with these patterns
maybe I'll change
for the light of day
in lieu to you
to learn the same
and let go of the pain
because that's not where strength is gained;
it's when all is said and done
with forgiveness given
and acceptance at heart
that mends the change.
How is one to learn
with role models who ache this way?
Maybe you wont take this to personally
maybe you'll think this is me walking away
but just know it's about time
I let go
and live for my inner peace,
so forgive me
and accept what you want to control
as this free bird flies uncaged
as I am on my way.
