UNPHASED

You walk around acting like nothing was the same
that I poured my heart out and you saw it as everyday rain 

I gave you my all 
but you even wanted my grave 

I stood alone 
not in a crowd 
not in a field 
not even in the presences of my peers 
but 
beside you
in-front of you 
anywhere I was close to you 
I was alone 
I was cold 

I should have listened when they told me you were cold 
when they told me that you could walk away with not one broken bone 
no tear to shed 
no voice to crack 
.... Nothing

I'm here
acting like the world sees me
understands me
wants to pretend like it has any interests in me
because you made me feel
like I wasn't worthy
like what I said was dust in the air
settles to quickly
Like my flesh and my breath; was a waste of the earth's energy
Any word spoken would enter black hole vicinity  

you made me feel alone and forgotten
I thought...I was completely abandoned

I'm here now
I know that I'm worthy
I'm unphased by
your viewpoint of me
how now you want me but honey
I now see clearly
you don't deserve me
you never needed me? ... Now you'll never have me

because now
I make me happy
I make me smile
I make my money and
I support my ups and downs

This started off sour
but reading it now
you see I became stronger
I took a stand
I know my power
You made me feel alone, but now
I shine like no damn tomorrow

I am UNPHASED and I am EMPOWERED
