I could have been amazing.
But you wouldn't let me.
Closed your eyes to me.
Turned your head from me.
Ignorant of me.
And while this pattern continues to remain amongst people I have now come to despise.
I beckon you and them to open your eyes.
My life was always truth, never lies.
And I never hid a thing, not my blood or my scars.
I displayed them openly for you to admire from afar.
I hid not a thing,
I lived off of love
And still you were the only one that you ever thought of
And in your ignorance you continue to remain
And your ignorance will be the bane
Of your existence
And the weakness in your resistance
And I lived off of truth
Off of fears and tears
And you thrived off my pain for two long years.
And people blame me for all of our faults
I'm still left with the hurt and the nightmares
I'm left picking and choosing for whom my heart really cares
I'm left here picking and choosing who is worth the fight
And shaking in my fright
of trusting again
Of hearing the end
Of feeling the unbearable feeling of torture again.
You see, you weren't a passerby you were a
ladron.
And you robbed me of my dignity that my heart relied on.
You are the people that created my hell.
And to think you would have attended when they rang my funeral bell.
with your artificial tears and your "I'm sorrys" and goodbyes
Hugging my mother as she wipes tears from her eyes
From having to bury her one and only child
And not knowing what it'd be like to see her ever smile...again.
Because a few people decided to talk.
Decided to dictate which plank she she walk.
Decided it was okay to have an opinion.
About the way someone led their own life
not knowing that everyone has a struggle and strife
Everyone has their share of mistakes
But not everyone deserves to pay for them at a wake.
Never to wake...
or open her eyes...
Because of the people who seemed to disguise...
themselves as her friends. as her few confidantes.
Yet were absent in her struggles, in her needs, in her wants.
And now.
Instead of letting go of the life that is hers.
She has finally decided to let go of the worst.
And cut out the "friends" who cut her out first.
And restart on a life that doesn't quite hurt...
And the memory of the people who betrayed are gone...
Forever withdrawn
Forever.
Gone.
