You pull me up
with your love
you shove me down
with your blinding rage
strangle me
Im so lost tonight
Its not love
not any more
It’s fear of change
that restrains and
destroys from the inside
you stare in horror
as the pain inside
consumes me
and turns to loathing
hurt me
the memories are obsolete
you have betrayed me
for the last time
who do you think you are?
Taking your rage out on me
leaving bruises
in unseen places
threatening death
if a word is whispered
about your unspeakable acts
you are too late
Im broken
I have destroyed myself
the jokes on you
you shoved me down
too many times
without pulling me
back up
I have been consumed
by the fire inside
