burning papers.

by @amirahshahari

You pick on me, Like strings. Leaving none attached for me to pull myself together, After the wreck. I mean, Do you really expect a mosaic, To turn out like a sculpted angel? So throw me all your words, Use them as a weapon, After all, I've already cut myself open. I wouldn't need your bitter soul to tell me how much of the world I've taken. And in return of your kindness, I would take all of your pictures, And shred them into pieces. Throw them into the fire, Along with your unrealistic expectations. And watch it burn, And burn; Until the word doesn't linger.

thank you for telling me that I am not good enough for anything and everything; at least I got a poem out of it.
