Wash My Trash
This was how it went down
Just before my countdown
I was sent in a lockdown
And was seen as a downtrodden
Caressed and scourged
How did i get down?
I wouldn't say
But i would if i could
I only slept for few seconds
Just to wake in a fine bondage
With someone feeding me with
Pottage
Of course the one i trusted
So i told you about me
And you hated me for being me
Whose fault is it that i grow?
While i called you "my person"
You pressed the button
And the dragon was unleashed
Well not this time
Because i woke while you slept
Took the fire extinguisher
And defended myself from the fire
Poured by your dragon
It had burned me enough
I wasn't shock when i knew
Its you
But i felt pity for your actions
Because i defeated the nightmare
Kindly read the letter i sent you
"Dear Ex- trusted one,
Do Wash My Trash"
