You had me.

You had me.

A Poem by Chong N. Kim

You had me . . .

I was your queen,
filled your every desire
lift you up,
sought out your dreams

Until, you said you didn't need me anymore
I cried and cried
begging you to stay
but refused and went your own way.

5 years gone by and you see me once again
approaching me as if nothing's wrong.

You said I was damaged and broken
incapable of love
now you want to say you miss the love we had?

Get out before I run one across your face.
Don't baffle me with your bullshit,
Remember you had me
wrapped around your finger
I became such a fool for you.
But I'm all over it now
without you; I’m able to live my dreams.

Today, I’m styling with my ladies
and surviving like my idol heroes

what you had, was me that was dead.
I stand stronger now and I will no longer face the ground
because even you can't restrain my spirit.

You don't realize what you HAD
until it is gone.

So, watch me walk out this door. . .
