hilarious how love never solves anything
you claim to love me, to want me.
and yet, i refuse to do the same.
there's a secret i wish i could tell you
about the things you think you know
the people. the lies they've told you.
oh goodness, you're on the floor again.
don't you know how to stand?
i've spent years picking myself up,
dusting off my own knees,
and here you are, needing support
only to stand on your own.
resentment spreads through my veins
icy hot anger, hatred spews from my heart.
i hate you. i hate you. i hate you. i hate you.
the words taste of sugar on my tongue.
free. sweet. real.
the closest to fresh air my lungs have felt.
men feel so tall and mighty until you remind them what they are
