Seething

SEETHING

I'm bleeding
And I'm seething.
To the top of my lungs,
I am screaming.
I weary of your incessant 
Scheming.
My heart splinters into a million, razor sharp
Shards.
I'm just now realizing that life's always this hard.
This betrayal is nearly driving me insane!
All joy in my soul has begun to 
Drain
Out of my pores without refrain.
My crystalline tears I've shed
Have turned from clear into red.
All due to the lies and the gossip
You've spewed and you've spread.
I won't hear even one more lie.
For this is my final, farewell, goodbye.
To escape from you
So, I'll always be free.
I'll no longer belong to you.
I'll finally belong to me.
