Heart of steel

I have torn the picture that was my guidance
with ever step I took and every breath that
I breathed.

The shirt I wore to find you in my dreams is
now made of ash in a pit, no longer to be seen.
The color blue to match your eyes is now as dark
as the midnight sky.

I have made my heart cold as ice when I think of
you and all of your alibi's, demanding dreams you
wished from me, you thought you took everything
or so it seems.

I have grown to be a stronger person, my mind
and dreams will no longer get away from me. I
have grown smarter along the way, no longer will
a man use me for play.

I sometimes wish for the girl who use to be me
to come back from deep in beneath but she is
lost and hiding never to trust again, never to
feel any pain.

I walk through my day now with a smile on my face
and look at you as nothing more than a disgrace.
My love was true and you were not, leaving behind
a girl in the dark.

I am stronger than you have ever been and you will
one day suffer this same pain,in my heart you are
now left out, no more will I let you bring me down.
