It was a casual day I ride the county bus to College Nice, bright sunny day Then someone I knew and feared came My enemy that supposed to Be my parent was in my sight Mood changed, heart skipped But I decided to be strong She tried to talk to me But I said nothing It only enraged her Thought I tried to tell her I was now grown up And free to make my choice She was still unhappy I was being assertive And not mean, but she Tried to manipulate me By claiming I was disrespectful But I ignored her She was trying to make me Talk to her and reconnect for Her self-centered schemes She threatened if I was going To treat her that way, she wouldn't Pay me in Child Support But Court orders says she must Feeling an inner battle in my mind. I then focused my energy to calming The negative, I had to focus again for classes Seek inner peace So I called for my heavenly father, And my angelic companion for courage I remembered my loved ones' wisdom And heard the voice of my hero Offering his wishes to do well in College I also envisioned an orb of energy Forming a water drop dripping down Catching in my hand, and flowing it Around my arms and palms The energy was emitting white light And soothing my cords of stress Cleaning away the shadows of lies Keeping my mind clear Upon arrival to College I ran to the building, looked back And she didn't follow Why she was on board the same bus I can imagine was to go To another town elsewhere I was emotionally drained Still breathing hard in relief And tired from running Couldn't think about much else She tried to say she hated how I treated Her, and to remember to honor her As said in the ten scared rules She knew my faith and tried to make me Guilty of disobeying her and showing disrespect But I know what's in my heart Truly matters and that I have the right To not let her back into my life After all the pain and scars she caused I can feel I did nothing wrong And handled it with respect And kept it positive as best I could using what I have |
