The Tale I'll Tell

You used me up like a dried up moist towelette

I hid in the woods in order to escape your rage


I longed for you like I long for my father who passed

I held your hand as you violently yanked it away


You screamed the words of a broken child within 

Making me feel less than the trash you threw me in


Accusing me of trapping you in a shot gun marriage

Making me believe I was at fault for my own innocent existance


I needed you like I needed every breath I took

To hold me with love, without first tearing me down


Now that I'm older I see you for what you truly are

A narcissist with a twisted fucked up personality


Never will you know what grew from my womb

Nor will you ever hear me utter a word to you again


No longer will I be a bother to the beast who birthed me

Who tore me down from the very roots I grew from
