Child
August 18, 2021
I was only a child
but you actions decided
that I would grow at an alarming rate
Simply too fast, so,
I broke.
Like a small,
limp tree
hit by a
grueling,
long,
cold winter.
My broken was scattered along
like salt on an icy driveway.
The pieces of me were up for taking,
the vultures would pick and poke
until what was left of me
was meshed into who you see today.
It is your fault
that I can't sleep
It's your fault
that I can't escape my thoughts
It's your fault
that I don't know how to love
It's your fault
It's your fault
It's your fault
