You walked away, when others stay,
There’s something I wish I could say,
And I hope you don’t take it the wrong way.
‘ was thinking to myself just the other day,
I wonder why she chose not to stay.
The world says a good woman never gives in,
To walk away is the direct equivalent of sin,
You keep all your problems & fears within,
You stand by him, no matter the suffering you’re in.
But you walked away, when others stay,
You chose your life & your sanity over what they say.
I don’t know what it is you felt that day,
When you packed your bags and walked away.
Maybe I can do better, maybe I’m worth more,
Maybe I’ll never know, ‘til I walk out that door,
Maybe love is not actually meant to be this sore,
Maybe the worlds opinions, don’t matter anymore.
Before walking away, many years you did stay,
What was your reason, what caused the delay?
Did you wish he would change, did u cry, did u pray?
Or did the fear of loneliness, make you stay one more day?
They say a bad man, ‘s better than no man at all,
& relationships are hard. You’ll rise and you’ll fall.
But a woman of worth, will always stand tall,
To her man, she must give her all.
By walking away, when others would stay,
You made it okay for me to do the same today,
Because right now, as much as I wanna delay,
The best thing for me, is to just walk away…
Dedicated to my mother. A beautiful strong woman who decided to walk away…
