Healthy Relationship
You push me into the school lockers
Telling me that shirt isn’t made for other peopleJust your eyes onlyYou’d say because I love you or if you’d love me you would not do certain things and I would listenYou backlash into me about how guys talk or look at meYou tell me I’m no good and will never find anyone betterThat if I try to leave you will hunt me down and beat meYou treat me as if I never have a sayFamily and friends tell me how unhealthy this isYou cheat and tell me not to listen to rumors because rumors are just thatI continued in this relationship wondering why I stayI stayed only for a simple fact I felt stuckI was afraid, scaredWhat happens if I leave? I considered this for months and months being abused by a guy who said he loved meUntil one day I think about a better timeWhere you aren’t involved Where you have no say in what I do or wear or sayI find someone who loves meAnd actually means itSomeone who doesn’t tell me what to wear or doSomeone who treats me like I’m my own individual Fast forward 6 years I found someone who treats me the way I should be He pushes me to become a better personHe supports me in my college classesHe has eyes only for meHe never lays a finger on meHe tells me I’m beautiful every single dayHe actually takes me on dates and wants to be out with meI’m no longer trapped in that unhealthy relationship I wear what I want to again I finally have self confidenceI look at myself every morning grinning because I know I can do anything I put my mind toI’m me again and I’m stronger than everI will never fall back into that unhealthy relationship My self worth is greater than any guy The day I left you was the day I started loving myself
