Waiting For The End

Been waiting for the end to begin,

While learning to trust me again.

For so long I have been completely numb,

Longing to simply be done.

You have taken so much of my life,

To the point, I didn’t want to survive.

My fault was believing you would change,

So I only have myself to blame.

Though I never deserved to be treated this way,

It was always my choice to stay.

Somewhere deep inside I still have faith,

That myself I will save.

I can see behind your fragile mask,

Nothing more of you I will ask.

Over the years I learned, I grew.

The answer this time, it’s me I choose.
