Rising

I gave you my heart

i wanted to give you everything and more

but those weren't your plans

i once saw that "a man says "the last thing i want to do is hurt you" but it's still on the list huh? "

i guess I didn't want to believe it.

because i still continued to fall deeper in love with you.

every conversation

every message

every glance

i felt myself fall for you more

i was just digging a deeper hole for myself

so when you decided you were done

you gave back my heart but it was in a million pieces.

My heart will never be the same, it's true.

i had to crawl my way out of that hole

everything bruised and scarred

but from these scars you left on my heart i grow

i learn.

i guard my heart.

and every look at you is a memory of what i was willing to do for love for you, and it only makes me think, that I'll give my love to someone who deserves it.

Im stronger

i wont fall for a player

You were the fire in my heart that burned it to ashes.

but like a pheonix

i

rise

from

the

ashes
