I was so young, innocent, and vulnerable,
You told me to listen to you, so I would feel comfortable.
Your words gave me a new outlook; I even had hope,
It was my go-to plan; it was my way to cope.
Soon I started to lose more than just the weight,
My self-worth soon turn into self-loathing and hate.
You made my values revolve around numbers and sizes,
I put my body through hell, when left to my own devices.
Years I spent being a slave to you,
I took the words you said as gospel and to be true.
Cunning, baffling, powerful...that is exactly what you are,
Beating and breaking me down only to be left emotionally scarred.
Still, you promise me each time will be better than the next,
So I fall trap to your lies and believe this is the life I need to accept.
However, something has happened that neither of us planned on,
Something much bigger than our destructive bond.
A life filled with promise, faith, and love,
One where you're not welcomed or a part of.
Take this message as my final goodbye,
No more chances, excuses, or lies.
I don't even want to wish you well,
Because all you ever did was cause my life hell.
Good ridden is the thought that comes to mind,
So consider this our divorce that has been sealed and signed.
