i am proud of this poem so please read and leave feedback. thanks
As soon as I find something that’s perfect and peaceful and pretty and calm
That’s exactly when they come along
And they take it
They break it
And then they try to make it their own

It was mine it was perfect and serene until they come and make me want to scream
They ruin all my happy places but I try to always fill the empty spaces
And life is so crazy
My vision is hazy
I’m going insane
I feel so much pain
I try to go to my happy place
Clear the expression from my face
Think, think, think back to my happy place
But oh no what a disgrace
You’ve popped right in to my special spot
The very same person I almost to forgot

I’m not a puppet and you can’t control me
I will escape and soon I will be free
You don’t know me as well as you think
And in your plan there’s one little kink
I won’t give in
And I won’t listen
I will protect what I love
I will push and I’ll shove
I will fight back and I will fend off attacks
If I were you I’d watch my back
I’m tired of being pushed around
Never making a single sound
So now when you come around
I assure you I won’t back down
As soon as I find something that’s perfect and peaceful and pretty and calm
That’s exactly when YOU come along
And you take it
you break it
And then you try to make it your own
Well you should know that I have grown
But I’m not all alone
And when I look at your faces
I no longer find them in my special places
I’ve defeated your curse
Been through the worst
Now it’s all over
Now it's all done
I have finally won
