The Girl Who's Lost Her Voice
someone used to always take up my mind
someone used to take control of all my time
all those things that i did,
i did for him.
all that time i could’ve filled with
beneficial thoughts,
but instead, everything that went on in my head
were words framed from his wants,
and my needs never had a response.
all those voices that i spoke with,
those voices were not mine.
i reflected the sounds i heard,
echoed the song of the malign.
i was a deafened bird, but i
sang loud to show them i’m fine.
someone knew just how to break me down
without me knowing what was going on.
someone found the way to pass my walls
without even moving a brick.
seems so impossible that someone can do this,
but he did
he did
seems so impossible that i could let this happen
but i did
i did
