Broken

As I lay there broken scattered across the floor
You’ve taken all I have to give and then you ask for more
Towering over me, you force my mouth to speak
Hypercritically wanting strength, when you have made me weak
I can’t begin to pinpoint where I just let this be 
And I can’t remember the moment when my heart stopped hearing me
I look at everything you took and everything you stole
how you twisted my thoughts so cleverly to let you take control
But now I stand as an outsider, I see it clear as day
It didn’t really matter what I thought, I never had a say. 
To dress as you found suitable and behave equally the same
To realise now your identity is cut off after your own name. 
But all the damage that you have done can still be turned around 
As strength, self worth and dignity have successfully now been found. 
No longer do I lay there broken, unable yet to fight
For I have done the strongest thing and let my wings take flight.

A Lot of Hate

I hate that I love you and that you make me cry
I hate that I want you and always want to try. 
I hate the fact I can’t forgot a tiny little thing
And I hate the ing radio and the sounds it has to sing
I hate that I can’t organise my stupid messed up brain
And I hate that every day is passing and still it feels the same 
I also hate the little things from day to day I see
And I hate this empty hole that is deep inside of me
But most of all what I really hate is how I feel for you
And all that hate and all those feeling just don’t know what to do. 
I hate this feeling of confusion and where I am meant to be
I hate the feeling of freedom but still not feeling free
I hate I have no answers and of nothing longer sure
I hate I have to live with these feelings for now and ever more.
