I saw your whispered comments

And as you sashay towards me

You know you have got me

Right where you want

Right where I hate

You ask if I remember you

And I openly lie

"I don't know you"

You smile maliciously

And whisper "What a lie.

I guarantee you still have your scars."

I wish to run

For I know who you are

You know my darkest secrets

You know my darkest days
You are the puppetmaster

While I am a puppet

YOU

ARE

BREAKING

MY

WALLS
Like a successful putsch

And I don't want you to know

YOU

ARE

BREAKING
ME

Slicing me in half

Like a swordsmen

Finishing someone off with their sword

And you know it

You walk away with an arrogant stride

Smiling because you won

Your favorite game

I cringe and strapped to the spot

I walk down the pathway of my past

Not enjoying the walk back down the path

The past I try to avoid

AND
I
CAN'T

BREATHE
