Marionette

You take and you take with your need and your greed then you get annoyed when i am in need. you couldn't care less, you just watch me bleed. it's planting, in me, a resentment seed. Then i walk around guilty, swallowing tears cause you twist it and mash it and feed on my fears of being someone that nobody wants the idea eats at me, toys with me, teases and taunts So i tell you exactly the way that i feel and you roil and you rage and you yell and i reel it's all the abuse without any hits but it's painful and cruel, and i'm damaged by it. You know that i don't like to make you upset so you scheme and you scream and you place all your bets on the fact that i'll cave and i'll cower and cry, and next time i have feelings i'll keep them inside. On the outside I smile, and say I forgive while I look for an exit. this is no way to live. ~NMG
