Don't just walk away from those who hurt you,
Walk away from the part of you that let them.
Strip off the old skin that was too easy to bruise,
Shed the habit of bending to their will.
Rebuild yourself in the heat of your struggles,
Come out stronger, not a victim but a fighter.
Let your inner fire burn away the memory
Of saying "okay" when you wanted to scream "no."
It's not enough to run from their shadow,
You've got to outrun who you used to be.
Take back the power you handed over,
Break free from the cage you helped create.
Stand up from the ruins of your old self,
Like a bird reborn, wild and unafraid.
Don't just slip from their grasp, but fly
Far beyond where they can reach you.
This journey isn't just about leaving them behind,
It's about finding the strength inside your mind.
Grab hold of the power that was always yours,
And create the life you've always dreamed of.
