Etched have you little pieces of mine
I hardly recognize the me left behind
Traces of my strength have waned away
I stand at your mercy everyday
I look up to you for comfort
But all you dispense is pain
I yearn for the unseen solace
Yet you choose to keep it this way
You have left me parched
In thirst I remember you won’t help
I need to find my own way
For you refused to be my solace
The pieces that you chipped away might be me
But I too have chipped away something in me
The new self I reveal is a stronger me
This time you would never be the same to me
