Walk Away
Don’t turn around
 Don’t give him the satisfaction
 The satisfaction of him knowing
 That each day he is gone
 Is another day that I cant breathe
 
 Just keep going
 Just keep forcing 
 Forcing one foot in front of the other
 And burying that hot, burning, hatred
 To the pit of my stomach
 Pushing down my anger, and frustration
 And pain
 All the sadness that he has caused
 And drop it
 Refusing to ever touch it again
 
 Its hard
 Hard to walk away from someone
 Who is supposed to be there for me
 Who's only job is to stay
 Right by my side
 
 Since the first breathe I ever took
 Since the first time I opened my eyes
 I depended,
 I counted,
 I needed him
 To protect me
 From all the hurt and harshness 
 That the world can give
 
 Yet, he is the one
 The one that breaks my heart 
 Every day
 Into smaller pieces
 And crushes them
 With his indifference 
 
 But, I will keep my march
 I will continue walking 
 Down an unknown road
 To an unknown future
 But now I know
 Who I can depend on
 To stay by my side when I need them the most
 And who just watches me
 As I walk away
