Final Breakthrough

For so long I was lost within,
I was Left to find myself,
Trapped against a wall of pity,
A Rag doll on her shelf.

Love was found, then love was lost,
Over and over again,
I found it hard to cope with,
All the pressure and pain.

Every now and then, he'd return to my life,
And make me think this time It'll work,
Then he would find something to argue about,
Once he'd gotten what was worth.

He used me for his own sick games,
Thrived within his power,
And when he was done it was up to me,
To bear with the words "Game over".

After yet another relationship fallen down the drain,
I decided to just go with it, what will be will be,
I wallowed about, knowing he'd always be there,
Taking away every chance of me breaking free.

Then by chance, you and me, started a new found friendship,
It didn't take long for me to feel a little more for you,
With your sense of humor, and personality beaming,
But would this ever become true?

One day I was sitting around just minding my own ways,
When two friends of mine ran up to me and grinned,
"Will you go out with him?" They asked on your behalf,
I guess I still felt unsure, but that soon thinned.

I stood for a second, unknowing what to say,
Would I get hurt? Would you leave me?
So many questions it scared me, but then,
"Yes!" I screamed, finally breaking free!

Rushing into your arms, I felt that sudden rush,
Of his power over me ebbing away, Gone!
Now I live only for you, my little life saver,
It's not another "Pull her in, throw her away, done".

Everyone says we're the perfect match,
And I see it in your eyes,
That one day we will live together,
And we'll live happily, no more lies.
