Learning my lesson

I slammed the door behind me 

And I heard your eyes roll; 

"Here we go again, 

a show, a childish act 

a crazy woman's meltdown." 

You think this a game, 

for me to get my own way.  

But this walk out, 

this exit is for my own sake. 

 

I didn’t walk way to teach you a lesson, 

I walked away because I finally learned mine.
