The Reveal

Before you can move on,

You have to admit what went wrong.

 

Do you know how long that took?

 

Before the guilt-ridden feelings,

Stubborn-ness and anger passed,

Allowing my mind to finally,

Believe what my heart was telling me.

 

I turned myself into someone you needed,

The rock that you could always lean on.

 I was being pushed into the ground,

Not being able to come up to breathe.

 

No longer a rock but a pebble,

Being tossed around by someone’s shoe.

 

All the sad and broken feelings,

The passive aggressive revealing,

Must seem dark,

Getting a glimpse into my heart.

 

But through the year of self imposed torture,

I knew my heart was still pure,

I still wanted to apologize,

For leaving you without your rock. 

 

I just –

Couldn’t take it any longer.
