tormenting me,
my words nullified,
needing to be free.
at the worst times,
putting me in my place.
Guilty of their crimes.
Are they a part of me?
Why won't they play fair?
Please just let me be.
I know it's coming,
no confines,
the pain is numbing.
I want to take control,
but I'm always outdone.
It's taken its toll.
they've hurt you.
I tried averting,
they broke through.
and the feeling it conjures.
Just know it isn't me,
hoping you'll see.
the wicked in me betrayed,
bursting out without a clue,
leaving you hurt and afraid.
