He bullied me into letting go
And I fell into the snow
And it was icy cold
Can I be brave, can I be bold? 
And just speak my own truth
Reflected through the prism of youth
That is growing long
But still I believe that strong
Comes with age
If you do not allow it to turn the page
On the fiercest of you 
If my heart means anything too
It will continue to burn a hole
Through the veil that hides the soul 
From the masses
And the classes
That I aced
Were nothing to the glory of his face
When it was revealed to me
He tried to steal into what it means to me
But it cannot be undone
Once you’ve seen the sun
You cannot unmake it
And I would never forsake it
Not for a pretty boy
That uses females like a toy
To play with in the day
But in the night it goes away
And he is mired in loss and pain
And learns to live with the rain
That pummels the skin
I told him that if he let me in
I could make it better
And the weather
Would pass
But our moment didn’t last
As he sold me out for someone else
And claimed that mental health
Is more important than truth
My God, life can be such a brute
But it will reveal itself to you
If you let the web fall through
Into the long lost water 
I am no wife, I am no daughter
I am no female set free
I am what I’ll always be
