I cannot sleep
In a bed anymore
Because it reminds me
of his
His bed he forced me onto
His bed he was holding me down on
His bed that I was exposed in
I cannot sleep
and it
is
your
fault
Holding on
For dear life
Please
do not let go
Hello, dad.
Hello, mom.
I'm 14 years old...
Why do you say those things?
Hello parents,
Hello family,
Do you love me like you say?
Mother
I am so very sorry
For that C I got
On my torn up report card
Father
I am so very sorry
For that tear I shed
Though you said it made me weak.
Brother
I am so very sorry
For thinking you loved me
I don't know what came over me
Sister
You are looking up
to the wrong
person
Mom
Dad
Why do you not love me?
Mom
Dad
Please tell me
That you are proud of me
Please say
That I am
enough.
Projecting the blame
as long as it's not me
it's you, it's him, it's her, it's them.
It's just not me.
Because I cannot handle
messing up
one
more
time
No
Do
Not
Walk
Out
That
Door
noticing a pattern XD
Do not touch my skin
No matter how much it calls for you
Because it is not me
that is saying your name
It is my skin
And my skin doesn't know what it wants.
Say it with me:
Nobody 'asks' for it :)
it is the least threatening name
for a fear so threatening
A fear so horrifying
A fear so..
so...
Automatic.
Just like that.

A snap,
and you're alone.
