The Reality Check



I needed you not to judge me
I needed you to be my friend
I needed you to have faith in me
I needed you to understand my mind
                                               
Your silence obvious judgement
You could never comprehend
You have not walked in my shoes
You have not faced what I’ve been through

I don’t need you to feel sorry for me
I don’t need you to tell me what’s right or wrong
I don’t need you to make decisions for me
I don’t need you to be my conscience

You can judge me all you want
You can stay mad at me forever
You can hate what I’ve done
You can pretend to understand

I’m stronger than I ever were
I’m surely getting up again
I’m not letting anything annihilate me
I’m tougher than ever before

Maybe I needed more than you could give
Maybe I was more than you could handle
Maybe my reality scared you senseless
Maybe I’m just done caring all together

Time to build those walls and move on
Time to lift my head and face reality
Time to benefit from my independence
Time to say goodbye...
