Perfect Contradiction

Thank you for the contradiction The do as I say, not as I do’s The teaching through acts The mind games with words You made me who I am Then complain about what you see Yet here I am at a low You not giving what I need Anger, hatred, criticism Is it a twisted game? Love and understanding Are they alien to you? You gave me everything Yet restricted its use How can I function? Whilst dreaming of a noose You destroyed my sanity Just leave me be Bottling up my vanity Emotions don’t flee
