Hate Is A Powerful Thing

I hate you. 
I'm sure you know that I hate you but I just need to tell you 
I don't hate easy 
The same way I don't trust easy 
Or get mad easy 
Or love easy 
But you made me trust you, then you made me love you, and somewhere along the way hate you 
You made me do things and think things I never thought possible 
You tore me down like constructors do to falling buildings 
And the reason you did it is because you like watching me in pain 
The reason you talked to me in the first place is because you knew you could make me fall again
And that's my fault 
But I promise you that I will never fall again 
You will never make my hands bleed from falling on hard concrete again
I won't have my hands held out in front of me anymore because I won't need to worry about you pushing me to the ground 
My only fear is that you made me like you in the process 
I can feel anger in my body and I've started fantasizing about making you hurt the way you made me hurt 
It makes my blood boil and I think about it all the time 
Is that dangerous? Are you scared? 
Because I am  
I think about ruining your life just to get a little satisfaction 
A little peace at mind knowing I wasn't the only one that came out of this wounded 
But will that help? 
Maybe there's only one way to know 
Do you wanna play a game with me? Or are you too scared? 
Before you answer just remember I learned from the best 
You. 
So What will it be? Truth? Or Dare? 
The choice is yours but each come with consequences as painful as the ache in my heart 
Choose carefully

  • Please Don't Compliment Me

    It’s been a long time since I’ve decided to write 
    There’s a new monster roaming my head
    Coloring all the others in fear with its fierce wails to be heard and forceful puppetry 
    They’ve always been here 
  • Writing Is All I Have

    Sometimes life gives you more than you can handle 
    Sometimes you can't figure out what to do with all the pain you feel because you know the right thing will hurt more 
  • Waiting

    Sometimes it's really hard to breath 
    In fact it's hard right now 
    My eyes are filling with what feels like fresh bathwater and my chest is tight and feels like it's on fire
