Lovely Words Or Abuse
I mean I was nothing to you right?
The way you would yell and scream,
“Idiotic”,
I was nothing to you,
I mean no more than a throw away napkin,
You used me to wipe up all of your insecurities,
And I kept them as my own,
Just so they wouldn't burden you,
You lived to show me your love,
With all your kind names for me,
“Worthless” “stupid” “ugly”
I lived for those compliments from you,
They made me cry so much,
But that was just how I showed you my appreciation,
And once you say how I clung to you after you gashed me with such nice things,
You only gave me more,
And more,
And more,
Till you were so sweet I finally decided I didn't want anymore cavities.
