"A woman, especially, if she have the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can." -Jane Austen


So many times have I believed,
that you had finally changed

I gave up, gave in, let you win,
sighed and looked the other way

But now I know that letting go,
and pretending this isn't pain

Isn't right, I'd rather fight,
than pretend it could ever be the same

I've been so numb for so long,
trying not to let you in

You gain my trust, then break it down,
tell me, Dad, when will it end?

I don't know why I still care,
after all that you've done to us

After all that we had, the family you left,
broken apart by lust

I hope you know I don't resent you,
I'm just hoping, praying for the best

I just want you to know that you've lost my trust,
I'm putting this pain to rest.

""I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when their right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust noone but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."
— Marilyn Monroe

This is amazing! No other way to describe it.
