A Message to a Little Man

All day i scream
at the world you brought me to,
all day i dream,
of a life without you,
all day i beam,
the cover-up smile you do,
all day i need an escape from you.

Can’t you see that
you’ve broken me in two,
can’t you see that
i cannot resist you,
can’t you see that
you have won this way,
can’t you see that
i am done this day.

You taught me to hate,
you taught me to hurt,
you taught me to die,
you taught me nothing.

You taught me to yell,
you taught me to fight,
you taught me to grieve,
you taught me no right.

I run,
you chase,
i fall,
you kick,
i cry,
you laugh,
fuck you.

I jump,
you fly,
i hide,
you seek,
i crawl,
you crush,
fuck you.

Don’t you know that
you made me what i am,
don’t you know that
i don’t give a damn,
don’t you know that
you fucked up my life,
don’t you know that
you killed me inside.

Now i yell,
with all my might,
fuck you,
fuck you right,

I can’t sleep,
not day not night,
you stole my innocence,
you made me fight,
you took my balance,
you left me to night.

Now i put on my mask,
i pick up the sword,
the white knight,
he has left his lord.

You’re dead to me,
i’m leaving you,
i cry a prayer
to forget you.

You make me stare,
into my mind,
i ask you, little man,
why why why.

You think you can take me,
you think you can own me,
you think you enslave me,
you think you can stone me,

So i leave to you,
a message of light,
all I have to say is,
fuck you,
fuck you right.

    Hey brandon, this was a neat write. I had to reread it a couple times and I'm not sure I comprehend it but then again there is a lot I don't. It had a nice flow to it, "Fuck you" in the middleish area stands out quiet nicely, I'm guessing thats how you wanted it. Great job, keep penning.

    Brandon dearest, do you need a hug?
    You seem so angry in your newest poems, and I'm just going to ask you: are you okay? I know that we may have grown apart over the past months, however, just know that I'll always be here for you, if you ever need anyone to talk to. If you feel like you can't talk to people you normally would, just know that I'm here, and I do love you. You're so smart and so wonderful, I hate when I have to read this type of poetry from friends, because they're just so sad.

    This as a poem was an amazing piece filled with raw angry emotion and I loved it.

    This as a poem written by a friend: scares me.

    I heart you,
    Leah
