Standing Tall Poem by Alexia Miles

Standing Tall



I saw you walk out of my back door
Sat in your car feeling guilty for what you have done
I sat day and night crying myself to sleep
You cannot come back for my shoulder anymore
I was all yours my love to hold and to keep
You found another but now you’re alone again
This is not your time to come back and try to amend
Leave me alone and move on with your life
I once was there and was going to be your wife
But I was not good enough
You had lost my love and my trust
So now I stand tall and say enough is enough
Move on and follow your own path
Because I am not here to pick up again the aftermath
