Spoken in barely a whisper
The walls began to crumble
The impact of such a small word
The damage it could do is so much greater
And I let them fall
Didn't have the strength to fight it
The damage had been done
All that was left of me
Were the broken pieces on the floor
I felt ashamed and enraged
That I allowed them to break me
I allowed them to tear me down
But, sad, I was not
I was at my lowest
Didn't have it in me to be sad
I allowed them to hurt me
Like the leaves
Allow the wind to carry them
I allowed them to take my life
Where are the broken pieces on the floor
All that was left of me
Is a memory that no one wants to keep.
