Leaving

Walking away

Leaving it all behind

Refusing to be
the once silent doormat

Keeping the spine
refusing to back down

Intoxicating
the strength is
never to cast aside again

Never to say "yes"
when soul cries "no"

Never to be walked over
and abused

Shut the door
and turn the key
on that painful history

Not to shadow
a clean and bright future

Only to be known
when moved on and healed

I am healing and strong
not broken anymore

Hear me roar
