Summer, few months back ,is far gone

You weren’t there, didn’t feel long

Painfully so

Ive started it again

They say i get it from you

Maybe so

But my cuts are deeper than yours

 


Every night i hear your cries

As if nobody minds

Oh it never ends 

Perhaps when you pull my hair

Scratch my skin

You plan my demise

We think alike, dont we?

I am one step ahead of you

 


I am forced into love

Perhaps that is why i dont think its real

Momma pushes and pleads

I hate kissing you goodnight

I hate greeting you

Your arms around me feel limp

Careless

You are always somewhere above us

I dont love you

 


She hates when i raise my voice

she worships yours

I fight for myself

You spew ear-splitting gibberish

Both sound the same

 


We are too alike

I think you see it too

Somewhere in your faded, distant

Eyes you see me

Not as i am

Cold, condescending eyes glare into yours

You are still, for once

All of me wishes you’d pounce

Pull me apart, back to my foundation

You stare back, for an instant i think you ponder

But I’m alone once again,

Full of untouched complexities that

Are your one final punishment .
