Your Words

Your words, so sweet and so nice
Your words, we would play and scamper like mice.
We would play dinosaurs or horses, and could you believe,
that I would go to the grave of our friendship and grieve.
We would play outside and run free,
but the last time I saw you, your words stung like a bee.
I know you are my family now, I can’t disagree,
but I had to hide your deeds, although for freedom I had to plea.

On the day of my cousin’s wed, you made me feel alone,
Your words, shown that when I tried to have fun, you would angrily groan. 
No weapon on this earth can compare how I felt
when you shooed me away like a pest, my face was wet and I knelt.
I went into the car, hearing the click of my seatbelt
cannot stop reliving the pain that I have dealt. 
Every living day, it seems to get worse
I have to deal with your words with your scarce remorse.
So if you are reading this, I want to to hear
that if you want to be my friend, you have to act like my family with love, not fear.

  • Dolls

    Dolls, who you dress up in pink and white, 

    dolls, who you take to the park or on a flight, 

    dolls, who are made of plastic and cloth, 

    they are always so girly, never unique or even goth.

  • My World

    My world, was full of happiness and bright

    my world, comforting from daylight to night.

    my world, seeing animals ripping people into bloody tears,

    I know now that they shouldn't be my biggest fears.

     

  • Perfect

    Perfect, as golden long hair and light blue eyes
    perfect, as a light complexion, as she is as graceful as a bird flies.
    perfect, as cute as a doll.
    But this, may not be perfect for some at all.
