My Reality

It’s like screaming out load, and no one can hear Like you dug into my darkest places, and unearthed all of my fears Shined a light upon my insecurities revealing my tears It’s like I surrendered my free will, to follow your command Relinquishing all of my power I put my life in your hands When my confidence begins to rise, you weaken my stand It’s like fumbling in darkness, eyes wide open and still can't see It’s like you muffled my cries, ignoring my pleas You abused me with your words so forcefully And they cut so deep that they scarred the inner me It’s like running full speed and getting no where It’s like you were my only life support, and you rationed my air I'm gasping for air, I can't catch my breath I've given it all that i have, and now i have nothing left It’s like I'm acting out a script. Word for word, line for line Like every thought that I have is yours and not mine It’s like I’ve lost myself, I can’t find the real me. It’s like my worst nightmares, has become reality
