I gave and I gave
while you took away
I loved and I loved
when all you wanted was to play
You took and you took
then you left me alone
I cried and I cried
til my heart turned to stone
I pushed and I pushed
to show you who I could be
over and over
It wasn't enough to just be me
I can't hold still
for when I do
my heart takes a beating
as I remember you
I am tired of moving
being tossed like a doll
I am a real girl
I am not your basketball
one day you will know
what you did to me
and every single tear that fell
you will surely see
God protects his daughters
every single one
I am a princess
and justice will be done
Love! Sherry, you really poured your heart out in that. Thanks for sharing, it was beautiful.
