Free (Free verse) by TLRufener
Iâve stayed behind you,
Held my silence for too many years;
Never once stood up for myself
And Iâve cried too many tears.
I owe all of this to you;
You have had your last moment to shine.
Iâm about to turn you loose.
Vengeance will be mine!
All of you lies have torn down the world.
Youâve crushed me time and again.
Iâve had it with your treachery.
Itâs time for you to taste the pain.
The storm clouds are coming back.
This time I have the crown.
I make the rules this time.
Now Iâm throwing you down.
You always said that you were right.
Everyone knew that I was wrong.
Soon theyâll know all the secrets;
Your hold over them will be gone.
Iâve gotten up from the dirt
And brushed off my perfect clothes.
Iâm taking back my perfect life;
Now you will be the one left alone.
The tables have been turned on you.
Iâm the one who landed on my feet.
Your hands will be vacant of action
For you will no longer have me to beat.
The door and I have made a deal;
It will block your path from me.
Never again will you ever see my face.
This time Iâm the one who is free!

I think the first line from the second stanza should be 'your'.. And the bit about 'Everyone knew that I was wrong'.. Well, shouldn't it be 'thought'? That's just what I think.. Don't change if you think you're right.. k..
