My poetry

Running

All my life has been spent hiding
And when not that cowering
I understand having "healthy fear"
But this has gotten too much to bear
I cried for help; you used it to hurt me
That's all I've ever seen you try to be
A monster; no compassion at all
It's like you just want to cause pain
But only to those who can't fight back
You've left me in pieces; no way to get out
Is this what my life is fated to be: hell?
Where my siblings turn; defend my abuser?
And you use my heart to cause more torment
You've said your life sucked; were you hit?
Abused by someone supposed to love and guide you?
Did you have all your flaws and slip-ups,
All thrown in your face again and again?
You say you know pain; you don't
For all that you say, you only know how to cause it
You caused worse pain then you claim to know.
Maybe before you play victim, learn humility.
You are arrogant in all ways but you don't see it
This world is not about you nor your life  in the least
Your words say you love us more than life itself
But your actions say that you don't even care
You've blinded my siblings: my brothers and sister
Yet in the end, after all you've done, you still think
That i love you with all my heart; try hate without love.
You have become the bane of my existence in all ways
I hate you and what you've done with every fiber in me
"Grow up", "Act your age"; you told me for years
But now i know: you need to practice before you preach.
