He

---

He

He bear me down,

He striped me of all the things I thought I loved,

But now I realise,

Now I see,

He could not and will not ever break me.

He took my child,

He took my name,

He tried to break me,

Destroy me with shame,

But I am not,

And never will be,

The person,

The woman he wants me to be.

He took my money,

He took my dreams,

He lied to me,

He called me names,

But I am strong,

And now I’m free

And he will never be the boss of me.

I sometimes,

I sometimes dream,

That I had never met the man he be,

But me,

I realise,

And now I see,

That he has helped make me….Me!
