&quot;Don&#039;t tell me the sky&#039;s the limit when ther are footsteps on the moon&quot;<br /> &quot;Instead of waiting for the storm to pass, learn to dance in the rain&quot;<br /> &quot;The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams&quot;

I’m no longer
Held captive
By your looks.
No longer
Prisoner
To your charm.
No longer
Kept as your
Slave.
I am my own being.
I am free.
Never again am I
Left in your wake
Bleeding and
Desperate.
No longer am I
Hoping for death.
I’m no longer
Yours.
Because I am
No longer.

&quot;I will no longer pray on my knees, to a god who&#039;s left me so many times. I will no longer pray on my knees, to a god who won&#039;t answer my call.&quot;
