Suppress me,
You don’t want to dress me
With all my wounds.
~~~
One day you’ll find me erased
And wonder why
You never saw me fly.
~~~
Inside a flash,
I learned
To be who you wanted.
I played the game right
Everything stayed the same,
Because I didn’t put up a fight.
~~~
Pulling down bits of myself
Thrown all over, askew.
All you missed out on,
Playing the game for who?
~~~
Picking up the pieces
To what I should have become,
Just beginning to unfold the creases
And everything ceases.
~~~
I see what you wanted now,
Even if unintentionally.
You blindsided me
With all your fake glee.
~~~
My eyes are wide open
To see what they see.
I’m starting to agree,
Most complacently.
~~~
I’ve always held the key
It’s been sitting in the lock, idly.
One twist of my wrist, and
You’ll no longer suppress me.
Brilliantly written 🖤
