They hurt me
Bullied me
Stoned me to the ground
They left me for dead
Left me to drown
In my own tears and broken dreams
Deafened by my own sorrowful screams
They left me for dead
And closed their ears to my pleads
The hurt and the pain
Produced by those who were closest
The ones I had known the longest
Those who hurt me the most
They walked away in silence
No remorse on their face
From that day forward
I never have opened my heart
I’ve hated those people
It was so hard for me to speak
My heart had been hardened
And my mouth has been opened
I try not to be a bystander
All my tears spent
I’m done being stomped on
Ridiculed
And looked upon with contempt
But the hatred bundled inside
Has to go away
I’ve been through too much
To let this one thing
Get in my way
Forgiveness is what I’m seeking
For them and for me
I want a heart that forgives
Oh please troubles,
Please let me be
