you said we'll be the flare,
and I became overjoyed,
the happiness within me so bare;
i never realized that i was being toyed
day by day I desperately held on
to the little hope those words gave
even when I felt ready to run,
i hadn't known that little by little; it dug my grave
......
A person's true character
is revealed in the things
they do not mean
to show you.
Aren't I just a puppet?
Rotting on your stagnant string,
I'll say that it's all love,
Even when you make me bleed.
And aren't I just your puppet?
Snapping my bones to fit your production,
I'll say that I don't mind it,
Through my retching and disgust.
......
You'll probably never see this
Never read this
You probably don't even know
That I'm a writer
You were proud of me
For as long as it was convenient
You supported me
For as long as it supported your good dad persona
