I will survive {contest}

by Run out of words   May 25, 2007


You dumped me here sweety,
You dumped me pretty cold.
You cancelled on me from time to time,
Your routine was getting old.

I thought at first,
Iâ??d be shattered to bits.
And at first,
It hurt didnâ??t it?

A couple of tears fell,
A couple of screams.
A few times you haunted me,
From my thoughts to my dreams.

I thought of you day and night,
I thought I just wouldnâ??t be able to let go.
But now Iâ??m kind of happy,
That you let your true self show.

I canâ??t believe I fell for a pig,
I canâ??t believe you lied.
Perfect people just donâ??t exist,
Thatâ??s why theyâ??re hard to find.

Youâ??re more imperfect,
That imperfect can even get.
So now my standards have risen,
A new goal Iâ??ve decided to set.

No more will I fall for a coward,
No more will I back up your lies.
No more will I take a step backward,
Nowâ?¦I will survive.

    Nicely done! At times the flow got a little rocky and off beat, but most of the time it was pretty steady. I like the words you used to describe this guy...hehe..."pig" "coward"...nice! Good Job!
