A poem about realising the truth and accepting it with the good and the bad.
You were my safety net.
That's all you were.
All of your protection,
your guidance
and your forgiveness,
was a lie.
That's all you were.

I'm on my own now.
That's all we are.
All of my weaknesses,
my strengths
and my victories,
are for real.
That's all we are.
