You forced your way into my space
I begged you not to...
You did not ask for permission
.... and after you had finished
you did not ask for my forgiveness.
You didn't consider my pain then...
and you don't realise now
just how you have hurt me....
you have stolen the future
that I dreamed of....
and now all I have is the burnt out husk
of a shattered dream.
Bulldozer.... you climbed over my hopes
and pushed those hopes into a pile of rubble
Your selfish wants were a blade
that scraped my self into a bleeding scrap heap
But piles of rubble can be turned into a wall....
I will not let you do that again
My life is my own behind that wall.
I will not let you hurt me again
The me that you dreamed of is gone
.... your thoughtless cruelty
has destroyed the person you thought you owned
I will not let you near me again
