I used to be your scapegoat,
responsible for everything,
treated like an infection.
I was just so shy and quiet,
your perfect prey.
I chose to ignore you,
pretend to be the strong girl,
but I had so many wounds
hidden in darkness.
I carried on day after day,
your calls at my back.
I numbed the pain
what else could I do?
Numb and lost.
I grew older,
became stronger,
but the fragile girl
still lives deep inside of me.
