A very personal poem for me to write. |
Just barely grazing my body, you sit there with no remorse As my thoughts spin around my head and bring me down with them No one knows but me, I never told a soul The hate grows and grows I was so young and fragile But you took me as I was, wide open and crushed My little eyes will never be pure again For what you did to me, I will never live without the scars It’s already been done, the past can never be unseen Can never be turned back and wiped clean From my mind and my eyes, you took everything from me And I just let you, I felt so dirty You kept the truth from her all these years But nothing else explained the breakfast you burnt While I was used as your entertainment Just something to play with But why!? Why was I the one thing you needed, why did you leave me torn? Were these the ideas going through your head the day I was born? I was just a little girl, I didn’t understand I wish I could go back to that day and never let you in Never let you get so close to me Stripped apart from what was taken from me I can’t even try to be, what I now can never be You left me like this, torn and silenced It stands between us, this invisible division Because as I grew up, you knew I was smart enough To make my own decision And stop you from going too far While you laugh away, the jokes on me Because with these memories, I can’t breathe Having to hide your sacred lie That you left for me all this time I will never escape |
