Rising

The more you hurt me, the stronger I become.

You think you're breaking me, but you're just building me up.

The tears have stopped running and no longer fall..

The heart has stopped aching and no longer feels..

My silence has become normal and I no longer respond..

I can feel the strength of the old me before I ever met you

My disappearance is inevitable and I will be gone..

I'm buying my time for the benefit will not be yours but mine

I've put up with too much for far too long,

And now it's time for me to stand up and show you exactly what I'm truly made of!

The old me is rising from the ashes and not looking back..
