You Hurt Me

I am leaving you
I don't have to stay in silence or
Live with this emotional abuse

I'm spiritually and physically
Unable to function, but
Mentally I hold my own

My body is weak, but
My spirit is strong
I refuse to be crushed out of existence

Another cycle of kindness
You prepare, but not this time
No, I will not change my mind

I'm leaving you for good
I've made my mind made up
To be free of this emotional plague

Uplifted by those that care
They gave me the strength to
Leave my bed of depression

Nothing was said to
Change my mind or
Give it a second thought to flee

My sensitive conscience
Keeps me grounded, but
To stay with you is mental suicide
