Happy Now

I no longer have the energy to fight
you thought my writing was cookie cutter made
happy you won, I stopped, I don't write

you first took a nibble then a great big bite
my convictions started to sway
I no longer have the energy to fight

I've been silent, lips closed tight
my work will no longer be on display
happy you won, I stopped, I don't write

dogging my work like you had some insight
making me feel betrayed
I no longer have the energy to fight

I don't believe things are black and white
but this thing here wasn't okay
happy you won, I stopped, I don't write

I wont say what I'd like because I'm too polite
but what comes around goes around I'm afraid
I no longer have the energy to fight
happy you won, I stopped, I don't write
