My turn
I cant stop thinking of your face
The one that made me feel disgraced
You put me down for far too long
Now im too scared to say im gone
Your footprints are tracked
Up and down my back
From all those year
Of me being a doormat
Im done this time
I won't deny
Youre done torturing me
I won't lie
Your turn to be stepped on
Walked all over
Your turn to be a doormat
You thought you were clever
My turn to shine
My turn to survive
Im in control now
You answer to me, bow down
The one that made me feel disgraced
You put me down for far too long
Now im too scared to say im gone
Your footprints are tracked
Up and down my back
From all those year
Of me being a doormat
Im done this time
I won't deny
Youre done torturing me
I won't lie
Your turn to be stepped on
Walked all over
Your turn to be a doormat
You thought you were clever
My turn to shine
My turn to survive
Im in control now
You answer to me, bow down

Good on you Miss Carol...sadly too many girls have been trampled on for sooooo long that they no longer have any backbone left with which to stand up and say enough is enough and break free of the physical and emotional and sexual abuse to which they have been subjected for far tooo long...Proud of you for breaking the cycle and have done so by taking back your life so that you can live it how YOU want to and not having to answer to the selfish wiles of someone who kept you down-trodden...proud of you C-Girland I like this poem and the courage that it took to share...please be safe and well...thanks and take care...Jimbo
