I try to ignore you
Just as you stab me
Starting a never ending war
You watch me falling down on a knee
I’m just a disgrace to the human race
Safe once more
I must ask
For how long
As the mask
Falls from my face
As I dry my crying eyes
The scab wont heal
I’m already dying inside
Pain becoming unreal to me
I pace until I feel safe again
I die no longer
Numb is all I feel
Stronger is all I am
I was dumb trying to befriend you
I shout now to remain safe
