Angry Choices
Angry Choices
You swooned at me, and I fell in feet first.
You made me feel as if I was brilliant.
But it was all a hoax.
My thoughts meant something once.
Now it's nothing but silence from me.
You taped my mouth and made me obey.
We could have been so much together.
You closed the door on, my opinion.
Wished me to tow the line and never fall.
Perfection is what you reach for, but I thought I was perfect before you touched me.
I long for discussion and human contact, but here I sit with no one in site.
I cry alone at night right next to your side, but you never hear my lonely cries.
My ears hurt from the screaming, but you seem to think I am deaf.
I follow behind you with my head down and I think what else could I be.
I have chosen this life, and I live it every day but when will I be allowed to speak.
My heart has broken into a million pieces, and I hold it in my hands looking for the solution.
I wanted love and happiness but here I sit with anger and bitterness.
You had me at hello, but will I ever say goodbye.
