I am drowning in my guilt for thoughts that I can't shake away and you just say the way I think is something I should just betray. What about all the abuse that comes from voices in my head? Will you even weep for the loss of me when I finally drop dead? I was losing faith, you just pushed me away. My heart was bursting at the seams you just kept spitting on my dreams. I asked to get away. You begged me to stay. What the hell do you want? I can't make the voices stop.
And I will take my pain to someone who can give me what I need. I should have known this all along I should have found the guts to leave. Because I live by what you're preaching, but I always come up short. My relationship with God's not something I have to report to you. Or anyone unless I'm shedding light. But not for praise or for approval, not for every stupid fight. I know my place and I will live by this. Make no mistake, I don't feel forced to hide my dignity or be ashamed of what's inside. I just don't plan to abandon my morals for one generation's pride. I'm done.
I'm not angry I promise. I'm just completely consumed. All my friendships are burning, and my family is turning into something I can't stand. All I need is some compassion from the ones I love. And they just tell me to try I'm done. Really this time.
