Rise from the Ashes

You never once respected me.
You tried to kill my hope.
You beat me down,
My every dream,
Then wondered why I couldn't cope.

It's like you never knew me,
Or saw the fire within my soul.
You doused my spirit,
Then tried to change me
Into someone I didn't know.

You actually broke me once,
But I'm not broken anymore,
And like a fucking phoenix,
I rise from the ashes stronger,
More powerful,
And more beautiful than ever before!
