"With pens and pencils as my weapons, I write to conquer, not the world, but myself."


You break me the way glass shatters.
You burn me out like a short neglected candle.
You tear me down like a long forgotten sign covered in graffitti.
You give me the things I need only to take them away again.
You send me running and hiding.
You disguise me.
You shrowd me with the people who say they will protect me.
I wont let you go.
I will do a forbidden deed in a dimly lit room.
I will give you all my money.
I will live on the streets dressed in rags.
I will take the abuse you bring
I will breath you in swiftly.
Why do you have to hurt me?
Why is our time together always so breif.
Why do you push me around and control me?
Why is me coming into contact with you so deeply wrong?
Why is this love forbidden?
When did I first fall in love with you?
When was it that i devotedmy life to you?
When did I ever say I was going to leave?
When have you ever told me you love me?
When did you give me your money?
When did I ever hurt you?
When did we ever do something together in public?
When did you start making so many rules?
When did you put me on this leash?
When did you shut me out, unless I gave you my money and time.
How did I deystroy myself like this?
How did I complie so easily to all the things you said?
How did I give up all I had for you?
How did I make things seem the same between us?
How did I not notice your price?
I know where to go.
I know what to do.
I know that I don't need you.
I know that my mother and father were right about you.
I know now, that you are bad for me.
I know now that you were wrong when you said I needed you.
This is me packing my things.
This is me checking into a clinic.
This is me saying goodbye.
Goodbye from the 15 year old girl you abused.
Goodbye from a girl who has become a women.
Goodbye from me, saying I don't need you.
Goodbye.
Drugs.
