You are a living paradox
Your actions contradict your statements
Your arrogance pollutes the air
As you claim to be the best while insulting others
Your abusive words slice my skin over and over
And I scream wanting to die but I never bleed out
I am always kept alive
Nursed back to health
Just before another deadly assault happens again
I try to win my battles
But I am only a child
My victory is a mere figment
Are you that ignorant or are you playing dumb
Trying to deceive your own self that you are a saint when you are the fallen angel himself
I stand here with scars that are not visible to the eyes
But scars that have tainted my heart
But scars that have to thicken my skin
But scars that have conquered my brain
In essence, I am a soldier that has lost his will
His will to live
His will to go on
Eventually, the trauma will seep in
Causing irreversible brain damage
