Blind
Reliving it
Is the worst
Being somewhere
Doing something
And all of a sudden
I’m transported back
And try to leave but
His grip is so strong
Why is he so strong?
If I keep trying to move away
He’s going to try more
So I will just stay still
Frozen
Don’t think about it
I can still feel him
His hot, foul breath
The way his arm wrapped
Around my shoulder
I can still smell him
Sharp notes of musk
And rotten leaves
I can’t handle it
When the memories rush in
And I...
Is the worst
Being somewhere

And try to leave but
His grip is so strong
Why is he so strong?

So I will just stay still
Frozen
Don’t think about it

No More
I can’t breathe
“He is going to Colorado State, you know.”
“I told him you were going there.”
I can’t breathe
“Why would you say that to her? You know what happened!”
“Don’t talk to him about her!”
“That is a horrible thing to say, you made her sick!”
I can’t breathe
“I’m sorry”
I can’t breathe
“He isn’t actually going there. Well, I don’t know he said he was accepted or something…”
“I thought it was funny…”
I can’t breathe
“In what world is that funny?”
“You need...

No matter what
That moment when I struggle
It's not supposed to be
I try to hold on to the
words once said to me
I promised that I'll thank Him
every single day
for if it was His blessing
I'll guard it come what may
In words once said to me
embedded in my heart
assured to always be
there no matter what
It's not supposed to be
I try to hold on to the
words once said to me
I promised that I'll thank Him
every single day
for if it was His blessing
I'll guard it come what may
In words once said to me
embedded in my heart
assured to always be
there no matter what

between the words we don't say
Let's not talk about this
so you can call me a liar
so you can bury yourself in denial
I don't need your validation
the truth won't set anyone free
and I'm not sure I want to
hold that gun to anyone's head
least of all my own
I can't change our world
with self-righteous violence
and you wear the victim
with all the pride of a horror movie
make-up artist
ripping the very real throat out
of an imaginary woman
Don't speak
don't make it real
someone might tell you
it's...
so you can call me a liar
so you can bury yourself in denial
I don't need your validation
the truth won't set anyone free

I can't change our world

Bloodletter
Bathing with a sponge in the blood of your brothers
Taking comfort in the pillow with the bones of your mother
Can the darkness or the madness of my wishes disappear?
Yes, I was seen, but I was a child to hear.
I had a soul, before he ripped it through my eyes
CPS saw all the marks, yet I'm the one who lies.
It's funny though, isn't it?
I'm not permitted to die
It's literally illegal for me to peacefully subside
I'm a time bomb, holding back for as long as i possibly can.
Woe betide the assholes: You should join the ones who ran.
Taking comfort in the pillow with the bones of your mother
Can the darkness or the madness of my wishes disappear?
Yes, I was seen, but I was a child to hear.
I had a soul, before he ripped it through my eyes
CPS saw all the marks, yet I'm the one who lies.
It's funny though, isn't it?
I'm not permitted to die
It's literally illegal for me to peacefully subside
I'm a time bomb, holding back for as long as i possibly can.
