gentle

i tried so hard to be gentle for you, to be quiet for you i tried to silence my anger so your adulation could be heard in the end, you did make me quiet. but, my anger is still there, pulling at the strings keeping me together. she wants to get out. i must keep her in, she hurts too many, she ruins too much, maybe that's not her, maybe that's me. maybe that's you. your initials will always be engraved into my soul. my eraser broke, i'm stuck with this branding. you called me pretty, but a pretty face is nothing when you have a vandalized soul. you made me unloveable.there is no longer room for anyone else's name. you hated my anger, but she loved you. I think she still does.
