Value of a Life

He has a life. He has a life where he gets what he wants. He gets the grades; He gets the roles. He gets everything handed to him. Because he is a perfect liar. He tricks the audience. He manipulates words To get what he wants. He gets to live his life. I lost my life. I have become dead inside. I am afraid to live my life. What he did to me, Left me broken and tainted. He has burned me to ashes. And I am left to put myself back together. The one who loved me, betrayed me. I am silenced by the suffering. I suffer while he lives.
