The care I received
The love I once knew
Has now shattered to a thousand pieces
As it lies
Breathlessly
Beneath my bare and bleeding feet
How can you not feel?!
The pain you’ve released on me
With every infliction
You’ve broken that glass
Before it’s even glued together
I am yours
I am your flesh and blood
I come from your body
I am part of your soul
Yet you tear me as though
I do not matter
As if I am pathetic…
A shame in this family!
And once you start building
That new wall of trust
It’s been flipped over by those ocean waves
The waves of hate and enmity
Kill me!
Kill me!
Do not tell me this hurts you
For it hurts me
To see my own
Despise me
