When I was younger,
My mother told me I was pretty,
But I could have looked better,
So I put on make up,
And I wore pretty dresses.

When I was younger,
My family told me I was smart,
But I could have been smarter,
So I read books.

When I was younger,
I was told I have potential,
But I was never encouraged
to do anything,

I was told I could never
be anything,
So I started working,
Harder,
But I never believed
I was doing something.

When I was younger,
I was told I'm loved,
But I used to get hit,
called names,
And get treated badly,
So I developed something in me,
That'll always hate me,
No matter what.

You're consuming my life,
Causing me to flip,
Hating on myself,
Calling everything worthless,
You go away for a second,
And stay for a decade,
You're horrible to me,
I'm worthless,
I demand you to go away,
You will not control me,
Stop it,
Stop it,
Stop it,
I'm nearing my end,
Because of you,
Please go away,
I beg of you.

A tiny Cat came to me in my sleep,
Told me a Mouse was haunting her,
She said the Mouse was made of wolves,
His screams were devouring her fear.

A little Cat is haunted by a Mouse,
He's smaller in size,
But bigger in words.

She was afraid of a Mouse,
Because the Mouse told her she was not a Cat,
She is a Mouse,
He said,
She is a disgrace.

The little Cat came to me in my sleep,
Told me she met a ******* Cat,
The ******* Cat told her to run,
But she ate the Mouse instead.

On the tip of my tongue,
The letters to your name,
They want me to share,
The love I can't bear,
Dodging a tear here,
And a scream there,
Once I'm in the tomb,
I will marry your name.

Your lips against mine,
Is an ocean in disguise,
Your eyes on mine,
Is a bright skyline,
Your smile,
So fine,
Makes me want to rewind.

It's a blue sky,
It's a bright night,
It's a weak heart,
It's a strong flight,
It's a broken soul,
It's a bird gone.

I poured my heart out,
I stepped on my pride,
I put you on top,
You still refuse to believe,
You're worth it.
