He cannot believe
that I have my own opinion
my own lense
my own life
He is a pushing, smothering
ideal
He is wanting to steal
the only thing I have
But I am not 16 anymore
I am a week from 19
I am strong, I am loved
I've seen my faults, I have forgiven my faults. But I will never be able to forget what he's done. Never.
All this time, he thought there was a chance.
That my kindness stretched over fire and hell.
But I'm not stupid, I'm not ignorant to hurt.
I know how that would feel.
