The Gate Is Closed

 I had to walk on glass 
Startled when hearing your voice
The heat in your eyes terrified me 
The burning sensation I felt 
The life of hell 

The fear 
Of a burning sinkhole 
Being trapped alive 
It took me forever to realize you were a living hell 

The sun was out 
While the darkness was inside the house 
The thunderstorm hid over my head
You hid your devilish face from the outside world 
But I saw  the mirror of truth 

I used to think I was cursed 
I used to think I was unimportant 
I might have been to you

I am closing that gate
Putting a metal padlock through
I know now 
My brain is processing the evil of truth 
It’s reminding me I have made the right choice
I am closing that gate
Putting a metal padlock through
I know now 
My brain is processing the evil of truth 
It’s reminding me I have made the right choice

The gate is officially closed 
I have found my strength 
And I am holding onto that strength
