Thou must think that I am fragile by thy threats.
When the truth is, I am laughing because thou think thee knoweth best.
I may not know thy story on a level of personal.
What I do know is my mental battles and battle plans.

Thou think thee can destroy me?
Thou think thee has authority in my life?
Let me englighten thee.

Only I can bring my self-esteem down.
The one who can destroy me is none other than myself.
Thou think thee can hurt me?
There is only one person who can break me.

These mental battles of mine don't allow a consistent recovery time-
Maybe none at all.
So save thy breath.
Thine eyes and actions speak a language I know best.
