Broken Pieces Feb 2020
The things of the past,
For me will always last.
Remembering the dreadful day,
When my parents just walked away.
These feelings are too much for me,
I'm trapped in my own thoughts and can't break free.
I want to ask a question but it's too tough,
Because it's quite hard to ask why I'm not good enough.
They've always ignored me and I got used to it,
I hated it although I'll never admit.
I thought my dad was a hero,
But he was closer to a zero.
I thought my mom was the best,
But she seemed to fail the test.
Finding out the truth has never been so hard,
Especially when everyone has put up their guard.

She said we was helping us grow,
But now all my thoughts flow.
She said that she loved me,
But she never set me free.
I thought she was one of the good guys,
But she's just full of lies.
She tortured me so much,
Now I whimper at the touch.
Grandma's are supposed to me nice,
But what is the price?
She hated us so,
And now I know.
I can't believe I fell for it,
I can't believe I let you hit.
I'm done with you,
I know you are too.

Hello mom and dad, I'm so excited today,
I've got no time to go out and play.
Today I will make you a present,
I hope it's very pleasant.
But then the bell rings and there is a call,
The words I hear make me feel so small.
What papers are you talking about?
Please, I beg you not to shout.
Why is everyone crying?
What are you implying?
Why are we not at our house?
What are all these doubts?
Finally someone explains to me,
Mom and dad wanted to set me free.
I'm not going to see them again,
They tell me take a deep breath and count to ten.
But I don't want to breathe, I want to cry,
Because all I ever did was try.
But I was not enough,
Why is life so tough?
I did everything you asked of me,
But now I'm locked without a key.
Now I'm all alone,
Stuck in the unknown.
Will I ever get to know,
About the trouble so long ago?
Mom and dad I thought you loved us,
Did we put up too much of a fuss?
Goodbye mom and dad, I'll sure miss you,
Because I never got to see what's true.

What exactly is a neutral state of mind?
How would it be defined?
To be okay but not?
That's quite a tough spot.
It's as if you have nothing to feel,
Like you're not quite real.
What if I said I was neutral,
Would your reaction be quite brutal?
Should I lie and say I'm fine,
Or would that cross another line?
Should I let the panic overtake me,
I could get lost in a sea.
Anxiety and depression fight one another,
It's never just one or the other.
I guess I can walk around,
Wishing nothing more than to be found.

The sky seems so blue today,
It's the perfect day to play.
But what happens if the lights go out,
Will you begin to shout?
I promise I'll still be there,
Because no matter what I will always care.
You don't have to be afraid,
To me you will always be worth more than a grade.

"I'm okay I promise." She says her eyes filling with tears,
He left, he's gone and she just stares.
She's begun to build up the wall,
Soon this girl will fall.
She doesn't see the light,
Nothing seems right.
"It's okay to cry" They try to tell her,
But nothing is like it used to be.
She has no time to rhyme,
Because she's lost inside.
I know that girl, how she feels,
Because we are one in the same.

Because this, is my r e f u s a l .
