Where will I find myself, if even the kitchen rodents hate me? If the very person who bore me in her womb just outright tells me she abhors me; If all that comforts me at night is a rotting second-hand sofa And also an old blanket I got for Christmas that warms me from the chills of a previous brouhaha; How am I supposed to know my value, if all they ever tell me is that I'm ugly? That even the fanciest of jewelries and gowns, can never make me pretty; What can the world offer me, when I'm blind and see only hues of blue? Or when I cradle myself in tears, when I know not what's next to do? What do I owe the people who see me hurt but don't wipe away my tears? When I know they here me screaming, while I beg for solemn peace. How can I ever be so proud of my efforts, if no one ever sees? Most specially the people, I need to see me bleed. So bear with me if I tell you, that I'm tired of listening, because no one ever hears me out when it's my heart that's been shattering. Don't blame me if I tell you, that I'm tired of living, Bacause all those I ever trusted, left and had me hanging. Don't cry if you hear me say that I'm tired of fighting, Because all I was is in past tense and it's too late for your grieving.

"Past Tense"
No one ever knew What it was like to be a **** They never felt the unnerving sensation Of the lingering touches and kisses No one knew How one's skin stings From trying to scrub away How ***** and disgusting they feel They don't know How it crushes a whore's heart To be used but not remembered How it's hard to find company Who sees you for who you are And not for your body They don't know How it's hard to live Upto the society's restrictions They judged but they were not aware Of how this bítch was molded They don't know But still they criticized They don't see The gaping hole left Within this slut's personality They don't feel the pang of rejection The pain of neglection The sting of false accusations They never listened Their criticism never faltered No one thought about the bìtch No one cares for the whôre What matters was that she destroys And then get destroyed by her protagonist They want a fairytale And there's gotta be a villain.
