I'll Cry No More for You

 1993

I'll cry no more for you

No longer shall I fight in vain

My soul has learned to slowly heal

Though some memories return my pain

Once your silent victim

No voice, no hope, no pride

The only friend I had was me

With whom I could confide. 

I'll cry no more for you

For your conscious sees no wrong

Your heavy hand shall hurt no more

This time I'll be gone.

I tried to make excuses

For the anger that you knew.

Praying it would fade with time.

Instead it only grew.

Years have passed without you.

My pride has been restored.

Sometimes I'm reminded by a memory

But you know... I cry no more.
