You Have No Clue
I can't breath under
All your lies
I can't feel your love
Though all your hate
Im not having fun
Being played
By your mind games
I don't feel wanted
Or protected
By my father
You have no clue
How to treat
Your daughter
You'll never comprehend
The language
My heart speaks
My heart is not
A dish
You can serve for
Everyone to feast
If only my
Eyes could actually
Scream
Then maybe
You could feel
My piercing pain
With every dagger
You throw at me
Wearing...
All your lies
I can't feel your love
Though all your hate
Im not having fun
Being played

I don't feel wanted

You have no clue

Your daughter
You'll never comprehend
The language

Scared Twigs Twisted
Like smithereens in cahoots,
Tensed flames swept and did brood.
Leaves strange stood
Legs curled - proper nude.
Skin sore of whips
Traced on veins by the fire's teeth.
Root rustic rhyme,
Though irregular, the branches would comply.
Tilting crack-dance,
The earth received the soothing lance.
Imprisoned in ditto jive,
Oaks, Figs, gave tries.
And the fire lick and slew,
The libido of the jungle
Clouds in lofty peace,
The malady did see.
The sun swift in pity,
Whipped the...

Haunting Me
Haunting me every night
Afraid to fall asleep because he will be there in my dreams
Attacking my heart strings and stabbing my pride
Agony of sleepless nights show on my face every morning
Aching from the scars that get rided open every night
Haunting me every night
Tossing and turning as I see his horrific grimace once more
Thrashing in the bed as I feel his hands around my throat
Taking my pride and ripping it into pieces
Throwing me against the bed before forcing his way in
Haunting me every night
...
Afraid to fall asleep because he will be there in my dreams
Attacking my heart strings and stabbing my pride
Agony of sleepless nights show on my face every morning
Aching from the scars that get rided open every night
Haunting me every night
Tossing and turning as I see his horrific grimace once more
Thrashing in the bed as I feel his hands around my throat
Taking my pride and ripping it into pieces
Throwing me against the bed before forcing his way in
Haunting me every night

Belle's Beast
She was beaten into a crumpled pile, he never feared as he approached
There was the smell of torturous pain all around, the walls of his realm broached
Lost in the wilderness of her mind, where her abuser left her for dead
Some how her finder could her the words of abuse in her head
He could hear the words echoing, "slut" and "whore" all around
He could feel the giant fist continually pounding her down
Treated as a dog, made to crawl on all four
Yes, hold on Lil Momma, let me open the door
He could had kicked it in, but why inflict...

I tried to love you, to love myself
You’re everything
I hate in the world
But when I felt
Your personality drip
Against my lips
Suddenly, I was dying of thirst
You’re everything
I hate in myself
The world seems
Cold and empty
There’s pain everywhere
It lingers on everything
I hear your smooth voice
In my head
Telling me that
You wish I was dead
I never want to
Open my eyes
I tired to love you
To love the world
And myself
To turn the dark into light
My love drowned ...
I hate in the world
But when I felt
Your personality drip
Against my lips
Suddenly, I was dying of thirst
You’re everything
I hate in myself
The world seems
Cold and empty
There’s pain everywhere
It lingers on everything
I hear your smooth voice
In my head
Telling me that
You wish I was dead
I never want to
Open my eyes
I tired to love you
To love the world
And myself
To turn the dark into light
My love drowned ...

One More Step
One More Step
Don't hurt me anymore I can't handle it anymore
Your words cut me like a knife please no stop
Stop calling me those nasty names I'm the only one here for you
Why are you so mean to me don't you love me
One More Step
I can't handle it anymore I have to go away
I have to get away get away from this hellhold
Please just let me escape I can't take another hit
Why can't I get away I have to go away I need to get away
One More Step
One more step to get away from him I can make it
One more step...
Don't hurt me anymore I can't handle it anymore
Your words cut me like a knife please no stop
Stop calling me those nasty names I'm the only one here for you
Why are you so mean to me don't you love me
One More Step
I can't handle it anymore I have to go away
I have to get away get away from this hellhold
Please just let me escape I can't take another hit
Why can't I get away I have to go away I need to get away

Fueled Frustrations
Frustrations are fueled
You neglecting my needs
Falling apart in front of you
And you don't even see me
Behind my smiles
Behind my brown eyes
Lives so much hurt
I work hard to disguise
Frustrations fueled
Constantly degrading
Receiving discredit in return
Denying me any claim
Less you forget
I am of your design
Our blood is the same
Fueled frustrations
Behind my calm demeanor
I'm angry inside
Voice without chords
Replaying then rewind
Kept closed up
Suffocating my soul ...
You neglecting my needs
Falling apart in front of you
And you don't even see me
Behind my smiles
Behind my brown eyes
Lives so much hurt
I work hard to disguise
Frustrations fueled
Constantly degrading
Receiving discredit in return
Denying me any claim
Less you forget
I am of your design
Our blood is the same
Fueled frustrations
Behind my calm demeanor
I'm angry inside
Voice without chords
Replaying then rewind
Kept closed up
Suffocating my soul ...

Addicted to the Narcissist

borderline insane
drugged toxic misanthropy
poison infected causality
seeking desperately out
wait for the come down

Sheets of Rain
Past two years
And sheets of rain
Repairing her life
Healing her pain
Committed to home
She still feels displaced
He opens her wounds
Calling her
A disgrace
Clips her wings
From taking flight
Hell bent and
Determined to
Decimate her light
Feeds her poison
Watches her slowly
Die from within
He leads her
Back toward
The path of
Self destruction
Her life seems
Pointless
Her head now
Hanging down
Her body is
Now weakening
Shes ready
To bow out ...
And sheets of rain
Repairing her life
Healing her pain
Committed to home
She still feels displaced
He opens her wounds
Calling her
A disgrace
Clips her wings
From taking flight
Hell bent and
Determined to
Decimate her light
Feeds her poison
Watches her slowly
Die from within
He leads her
Back toward
The path of
Self destruction
Her life seems
Pointless
Her head now
Hanging down
Her body is
Now weakening
Shes ready
To bow out ...

Silent Symphony
Do you honestly believe
I am your muse?
To write and compose
The melodies of my agony
I’m not your sheet of music
My suffering is not
Your notes for you to choose
And to be honest
Only a man Of dishonor
And bad taste
Would conduct a symphony
Playing my tears of pain
Boasting his power
For the audience to applaud
How perfect you really
Believe your are
So go ahead
I beg of you
Play the melodies of your
Cowardly tune
Play till your hearts content
Play I beg of you till

Psychopathic Predators Game
She wasn't given an option
To live or survive
In an environment of
Demonizing corrupt perplexity
On the outside perfect picture
Who would fathom
Such a thing?
Behind the doors closed
Psychological manipulation
Overshadows her with
All of their
Malevolent darkness
Gas lights flickering
To annihilate her placidity
Tearing her down
Brick by brick
Exposing her nakedness
Weakening her mind
Chipping away who she is
Who she was
Everything she was
Meant to be ...
